CircuitPython_Servo

Description

I am making a motor spin 180 degrees, with two buttons

code:

# Jabari Bright
# CircuitPython Servo
# Pressing one button moves a servo clockwise, pressing the second button moves it back.

import time
import board
from digitalio import DigitalInOut, Direction, Pull
from adafruit_motor import servo
import pwmio

btn = DigitalInOut(board.D4)
btn.direction = Direction.INPUT
btn.pull = Pull.UP

pwm = pwmio.PWMOut(board.D2, duty_cycle=2 ** 15, frequency=50)
my_servo = servo.Servo(pwm)
angle = 180


btn2 = DigitalInOut(board.D6)
btn2.direction = Direction.INPUT
btn2.pull = Pull.UP

while True:
    if not btn.value:
        print("BTN is down")
        for angle in range(0, 180, 9):  # 0 - 180 degrees, 9 degrees at a time
            my_servo.angle = angle 
            time.sleep(0.1)
    else:
        print("BTN is up")
        pass
    if not btn2.value:
        print("BTN2 is down")
        for angle in range(180,0, -9):  # 180 degrees - 0, -9 degrees at a time
            my_servo.angle = angle 
            time.sleep(0.1)
    else:
        print("BTN2 is up")
        pass

    time.sleep(0.1) # sleep for debounce

Thanks Will H for the code!

This was really hard because I didnt know how to start with the code, but thanks to my fellow classmate Will H for the code! I got it done, but another problem to where the motor wouldnt turn right, but thanks to my teacher I got that figured out.

it wasnt really hard all you really had to do was copy a code from the assighnment code on canvas:https://cvilleschools.instructure.com/courses/37129/assignments/493863

Temperature_sensor

the project is that you have to wire up a temperature sensor and also make the temperature show up on an LCD screen

Code

import board
import analogio
import time
import board
import time
import digitalio
from lcd.lcd import LCD
from lcd.i2c_pcf8574_interface import I2CPCF8574Interface

# turn on lcd power switch pin
lcdPower = digitalio.DigitalInOut(board.D8)
lcdPower.direction = digitalio.Direction.INPUT
lcdPower.pull = digitalio.Pull.DOWN

# Keep the I2C protocol from running until the LCD has been turned on
# You need to flip the switch on the breadboard to do this.
while lcdPower.value is False:
    print("still sleeping")
    time.sleep(0.1)

# Time to start up the LCD!
time.sleep(1)
print(lcdPower.value)
print("running")

i2c = board.I2C()
lcd = LCD(I2CPCF8574Interface(i2c, 0x27), num_rows=2, num_cols=16)



TMP36_PIN = board.A0  # Analog input connected to TMP36 output.


# Function to simplify the math of reading the temperature.
def tmp36_temperature_C(analogin):
    millivolts = analogin.value * (analogin.reference_voltage * 1000 / 65535)
    return (millivolts - 500) / 10


# Create TMP36 analog input.
tmp36 = analogio.AnalogIn(TMP36_PIN)

# Loop forever.
while True:
    # Read the temperature in Celsius.
    temp_C = tmp36_temperature_C(tmp36)
    # Convert to Fahrenheit.
    temp_F = (temp_C * 9/5) + 32
    # Print out the value and delay a second before looping again.
    print("Temperature: {}C {}F".format(temp_C, temp_F))
    time.sleep(1.0)
    lcd.set_cursor_pos(0,0)
    lcd.print("Temp C: {}C".format(temp_C))
    lcd.set_cursor_pos(1,0)
    lcd.print("Temp F: {}F".format(temp_F))

this assighnment was somewhat easy, i had trouble finding code so i aksed a teacher and they helped me out, and in the end we got that done, but there was another problem,there was something going on with my computer to where everytime I plug my board up,it wouldnt connect, so i had to ask the teacher for some help, it took 3 teachers to figure out was was wrong. we tried switching out the board but we eneded up realizing that wasnt the problem, so we tried plugging the board soewhere else and it worked. what I learned is that you can rely on your teachers if you need help.

thanks Nick B for the code and rotary wiring!

wasnt really difficult, i used a fellow students wiring and code his name is Nick B, so thanks to them i got this done, The only difficult thing was trying to get led lights to match the traffic light singals on the LCD screen and like nick B did in there project, but it was difficult than expected, i tried asking a teacher but that didnt work, so after trying and trying, i just didnt do the Led thing and ended up just letting the lcd screen show the traffic light signals, other than that no other difficulties, project made me realize that its ok to use other peoples code as long as you give credit to them.

Photointerrupters

Description

wire up a photointerrupter and make it keep track of how many times it was interrupted

Code

## Jabari Bright Photointerrupter
#Thanks Mason Divers and  River Lewis for the code 
#rivques
import time # Import the time module for time-related functions
import digitalio # Import the digitalio module for working with digital I/O pins
import board # Import the board module for working with board-specific pin names

# Set up a digital input pin for the photoI sensor
photoI = digitalio.DigitalInOut(board.D7)
photoI.direction = digitalio.Direction.INPUT # Set the direction of the pin as input
photoI.pull = digitalio.Pull.UP # Enable the internal pull-up resistor for the pin

last_photoI = True # Initialize the previous state of the photoI sensor as True (HIGH)
last_update = -4 # Initialize the last update time as -4 seconds ago

photoICrosses = 0 # Initialize the counter for photoI sensor crossings as 0

while True: # Start an infinite loop
    if time.monotonic() - last_update > 4: # Check if 4 seconds have passed since the last update
        print(f"The number of crosses is {photoICrosses}") # Print the number of crossings
        last_update = time.monotonic() # Update the last update time to the current time

    if last_photoI != photoI.value and not photoI.value: # Check if the state of the photoI sensor has changed from HIGH to LOW (crossing detected)
        photoICrosses += 1 # Increment the counter for photoI sensor crossings
    last_photoI = photoI.value # Update the previous state of the photoI sensor with the current state
