Week Overview

This week is input week, and like output week, we will program an input that is specifically for our final projects. Since my only input is a potentiometer for my tennis ball machine, which was already one back in week 9, Mr. Dubick has assigned all of us to program the MPU-6050 accelerometer. An accelerometer is a device that can sense the acceleration in all 3 dimensions.

The group work consists of measuring the input voltage of an input device.

Here is this week’s assignment in more detail:

individual assignment:
  measure something: add a sensor to a microcontroller board
  that you have designed and read it

group assignment: probe an input device’s analog levels and digital signals
