Time is quickly passing, so I’m taking a short break from button coding, and progressing on the cube construction. My initial sketches, based on component sizes, showed a cube that would need to be approximately 7 cm square. I would then have enough room for an Arduino Pro board, 3-AA batteries, QT110 chip, RGB LEDs, [ READ MORE ]
Added functionality: button double-press (hold red light on) button press hold + touch tap (switches rainbow color) button press hold + touch hold (cross fades between rainbow colors)[ READ MORE ]
Building the “SUI cube” prototype is progressing quickly and with only some pain… My initial electronics design made use of a very small code library that would allow me to sense the touch of the button. This method did not require any additional hardware and used only a small amount of code to detect the [ READ MORE ]
