      Sound         By: Nick Lucente A sound is created by transmissions of sound-waves, when the particles hit into each other (a vibration) it makes a sound and you hear it when it vibrates and pushes molecules towards your eardrums. When I’m playing guitar this happens when I pluck a string the [...]

    Sound is a very crazy thing and a very cool technology once you get to know it. Sound is conducted by the transmissions of sound waves, when the particles  hit each other which is vibration it makes a sound and you hear it when the sounds reach your ear drum. How a speaker makes noise [...]

    Sound can be found everywhere, but what exactly is sound?  Sound has been very vital to the survival of many species, alerting them if danger was near, communicating, and having the ability to navigate.  Sound is a traveling series of waves that move through the air, or other materials such as liquids or some solids.  [...]

    1.You Arduino may look different than other friends.  At first look you’re not sure if it can talk, or if it’s a girl or boy, or if the thing is even turned on.  That last question is a good one, there is no on button.  Arduino can be and do anything you want it to, and it will keep doing that over and over until you unplug it.

    1You Arduino may look different than other friends.  At first look you’re not sure if it can talk, if it’s a girl or boy, or if the thing is even turned on.  That last question is a good one, there is no “on” button.  Arduino can be and do anything you want it to, and it will keep doing that over and over until you unplug it.
    2Arduino will become that friend you’ve always wanted.  If you want it to talk you’ll give it a way to talk, maybe even a mouth, if that’s what you’re making.  If you want it to hear you’ll give it a way to hear.  You can give Arduino all of the 5 senses that you have, and a few more you don’t.  Have you ever wanted a friend that has night vision, laser eyes, ultrasonic hearing, ability to sense someone getting close without seeing them?  Maybe you’ve wanted a friend that can float into the edge of space and send back pictures from it’s vacation.  Or a friend that can 100′ walls and survive the fall.
    3Arduino can even be that really chill friend that will just tell you when someone sent you a tweet by turning on a mellow pulsing blue light.  It can even be that super responsible friend that will water your plants, feed the pets, and turn on the lights to keep burglars away.
    4Arduino is a Physical Computing prototyping platform that is easy to program and build with.
