by Su Pwint, IDM Class of 2019 This was my first conference experience as well as being a Student Volunteer at SIGGRAPH 2017. I couldn’t thank enough to everyone who supported and helped me throughout this incredible journey to experience as a student volunteer at the SIGGRAPH 2017 Los Angeles conference. …
We recently installed a display case in our hallways to feature historic interactive technologies, this coincides with our IDM-101 History of Web Development class where we discuss historic modes of connecting and designing for the web. Currently on Display: HTC Dream On October 2008, Google introduces Android 1.0 as featured …
So this week after completing the Arduino Starter Kit, Project 11: Crystal Ball with my Interactive Digital Media class, I was intrigued by the LCD screen and wondered how to create scrolling text. While the Liquid Crystal Library clearly documents the scrollDisplayLeft() function, this scrolls both lines simultaneously. So this …
This week we started with Project 10: Zoetrope. Using a motor we created the illusion of motion similar to how animation was presented in the pre-movie era. Ultimately though, we earned how to start, stop and change the direction the motor is spinning via buttons, and how to control the …
This week we start with Project 07 in the Arduino Starter Kit and built a Keyboard Instrument. This project utilizes a process called a resistor ladder. A resistor ladder is a circuit that is made using repeating units of resistors. This way we can read multiple switches using only one …
A theremin is an electronic musical instrument controlled without any physical contact from the musician. It is named after it’s Russian inventor, Leon Theremin. The device was patented in 1928. Here he is demonstrating his invention: In project 6 of the Arduino starter kit we build a theremin that uses a photoresistor …
This week we worked our way through Project 4: Color Mixing Lamp and Project 5: Mood Cue. Project 4 dealt taught us how to use photoresistors to control the color of an RGB LED. We use three photoresistors, each one was covered with a red, green, or blue gel so …
This week we started digging into the Arduino Starter Kit. Our initial move was to write code to make the on board LED flash to understand the core concept of the Arduino IDE and the associate programming language. The Arduino is a simple microcontroller that was created for building digital devices …
Built from the ground up, Trestle is a web application that bridges communication between parents, teachers, and other caregivers in the lives of students with Autism Spectrum Disorder. There were two primary obstacles that were tackled in the creation of Trestle. First was Dr. Hassrick’s method of using pencil and …
