11. Input devices

This week I worked on input devices by Coding LED light.

Code Example

My Code

#define pushButton 2
#define LED 3

bool state=false;

void setup() {

  pinMode(pushButton,INPUT);// my input of the my push button is in pin number 2
  pinMode(LED,OUTPUT);

}

void loop() {
  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
 state= digitalRead(pushButton);
if(state==false){
   state= digitalRead(pushButton);
  digitalWrite(LED,HIGH);
   delay(3000);
}

else{

  digitalWrite(LED,LOW);
}
}
// the setup function runs once when you press reset or power the board
void setup() {
  // initialize digital pin LED_BUILTIN as an output.
  pinMode(LED_BUILTIN, OUTPUT);
}

// the loop function runs over and over again forever
void loop() {
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, HIGH);   // turn the LED on (HIGH is the voltage level)
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
  digitalWrite(LED_BUILTIN, LOW);    // turn the LED off by making the voltage LOW
  delay(1000);                       // wait for a second
}
  • PIR sensor tester ``` */

int ledPin = 13; // choose the pin for the LED int inputPin = 2; // choose the input pin (for PIR sensor) int pirState = LOW; // we start, assuming no motion detected int val = 0; // variable for reading the pin status

void setup() { pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // declare LED as output pinMode(inputPin, INPUT); // declare sensor as input

Serial.begin(9600); }

void loop(){ val = digitalRead(inputPin); // read input value if (val == HIGH) { // check if the input is HIGH digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH); // turn LED ON if (pirState == LOW) { // we have just turned on Serial.println(“Motion detected!”); // We only want to print on the output change, not state pirState = HIGH; } } else { digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW); // turn LED OFF if (pirState == HIGH){ // we have just turned of Serial.println(“Motion ended!”); // We only want to print on the output change, not state pirState = LOW; } } } ``
