RGB :: Common Cathode, Common Anode
As you are all aware I was surprised by the fact that, while most of the 2021 kits have common cathode RGB LEDs, a significant number have common anode RGB LEDs. We are going to make the most of this...
First Circuit :: Alligator Edition
In this Exploration you are going to make your first simple circuit. The goal is to make an LED glow. Some of you are going to shoot straight to the video and get building. IF that's your tactic -- make...
Threshold an Analog Sensor
Many times when using an analog sensor you will simply want to know if the sensor has changed enough to trigger a different event or behaviour. For example you may want to know when a room changes from bright (lights...
First Circuit :: Breadboard Edition
In this exploration we are going to take your Alligator Clip Circuit as a starting point and move it onto a breadboard. Before you Begin Before you start his build you should have completed the Alligator Clip Circuit -- and...
Tangible Matrix
Before you take your deep dive into Arduino its a good to first get a birds-eye view of what this world called tangible is all about. In this exploration I will introduce a general framework for thinking about and creating...
Digital Inputs
Digital Inputs (DI) are one of the four contexts or types of circuits that are core to tangible. If you have not yet looked at the tangible matrix Building Block, you should check it out now. It will introduce you...
Digital Outputs
Digital Outputs (DO) are one of the four contexts or types of circuits that are core to tangible. If you have not yet looked at the tangible matrix Building Block, you should check it out now. It will introduce you...
Analog Inputs
Analog Inputs (AI) are one of the four contexts or types of circuits that are core to tangible. If you have not yet looked at the tangible matrix Building Block, you should check it out now. It will introduce you...
Analog Outputs
Analog Outputs (AO) are one of the four contexts or types of circuits that are core to tangible. If you have not yet looked at the tangible matrix Building Block, you should check it out now. It will introduce you...
