ARDUINO codes, fixes, ideas

01/6 /2010
Today we have achieved a lot within our ardiuno project. we found a section of code that allows us to play music via a piazo. the notes represent different voltage values that are sent to the piazo to make different tones. so it initally came with twinkle twinkle little star. Nic G wrote out mary had a little lamb and we got that to run on the piazo. then we put on the motor shield which allowes us to run two servo motors and a bunch of other thingns we have yet to have the chance to experiment with. with the servo it runs by degree's and greater/lesser values to determine when it should run. while we were doing this i noticed that it stopped when placed over the metal siding of the table. nic related this discovery to our earlier problems that we had where the arduino simply stopped working because it was shorting on the metal strip. We resolved the problem by placing a slice of paper under the Arduino board and now it works smoothly. The piezo program will be fun to work with because we can make a variety of simple songs.
