Magnetism

Reed Switch: (a Magnet Sensing Switch) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sl8ItZxGM6E

Hall Effect Sensors (Magnetic Sensors - non mechanical, opposed to the reed switch) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9BFdGtvo9JE (too long to watch for class, but good explanation)

  • switching
  • analog field strength.

Electronic compass. / Magnetometer

Capacitive Sensing

Main Application Today: Touch Screens http://hackaday.com/2012/03/27/piano-box-is-a-digital-synthesizer-made-of-paper/ http://www.instructables.com/id/DIY-3D-Controller/ Capacitive Water Level Sensing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GPvCxkWgbE


Displays:

LED 7-Segment-Display: http://tronixstuff.wordpress.com/

LCD Shield: http://www.dfrobot.com/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=51 http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=JDoTn1sLxWQ#t=57s (+ Guide for general LCD Displays)

  • search for the display model in case you don't know whether it is easily controllable using arduino.

LED-Matrix (2D) and Lens = Projector. http://tinkerlog.com/2008/08/31/led-matrix-projector/

Arduino 5x7 LED Matrix Display http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z6Wv3CiSTfo

Other Connections:

Arduino + Android: (Advanced Level!) http://mitchtech.net/android-arduino-usb-host-temperature-light/

Ethernet Shield: http://arduino.cc/en/Main/ArduinoEthernetShield

  • Twitter, Facebook, your own website on The Arduino Webserver, ...
  • SD Card for increased storage (Arduino has ownly a few kilibytes, this extends it to 2GB)

Brightness: Photo Diode, Photo Transistor

  • fast
  • measure current
  • photo-transistor: 2 or 3 pins - usually only 2 of them needed.
  • photo diode: 2 pin device. Many types visually not to distinguish from LEDs
  • polarity does matter.

LDR: Light Dependant Resistor

  • slower
  • no polarity (usage more simple).

Temperature:

  • NTC, PTC: Resistors which change their resistance.
  • Many different temperature sensors available (digital interface, analog output voltage)

differ in temperature range, interface, size, ...

Sound:

Microphones

Knock Tracking: http://www.emeraldinsight.com/journals.htm?articleid=1464099&show=html


Movement

PIR Passive Infrared: Detects changes in temperature (thermal radioation) - widely used to switch lamps on by movement. - in commercial products: often have a brightness sensor included to only work in dark environments)
