๐ŸŒˆ Distance Makes the Disco Grow Stronger

About the event

What happens when you wave your hand at a rainbow and it waves back?
Join us for a fun, hands-on Arduino class where you'll create a vibrant light show using an ultrasonic distance sensor and an RGB LED strip! As you move your hand closer or further away, watch the lights change brightness, colors, and even create animated effects. It's a fascinating blend of science, magic, and a mini dance party! ๐ŸŒŸ

What You'll Learn:

  • Ultrasonic Sensors: Understand how these sensors measure distance
  • RGB LED Strips: Learn to connect and control them for stunning visual effects
  • Arduino Basics: Get introduced to programming concepts
  • Interactive Projects: Use sensor data to bring interactivity into your creations
  • Customization: Personalize your project with your choice of colors and effects

No prior experience is needed! If you can wave your hand and hit "Upload," youโ€™re ready to go.
Warning: Excessive participation may lead to dramatic hand-waving, unintended sound effects, and an uncontrollable urge to LED everything!

Bring your laptop if you have one, but feel free to join us even if you donโ€™t!
