Concept:
For this assignment, I wanted to create a simple switch using something in my room. I decided to do it with the laundry clip. I had to attach the wires to both ends of the clips so that the circuit is complete as soon as the clip is closed. I tied a thread on both ends of the clip and placed wires in it. Now, if the clip is closed the light is on, otherwise, if it’s open, the light will turn off.
Here’s the video:
Future Improvements:
I was able to achieve what I wanted from this assignment. However, in the future, I would like to use a conductor between the clips so that I can increase the distance between the Arduino board and the switch. Moreover, I would like to use the switch for some games or interaction between Arduino and the computer.
