11/15 Arduino Starter kit Project - CRYSTAL BALL
Create a crystal ball to tell your future.
Crystal balls can help “predict” the future. You ask a question to the
all-knowing ball, and turn it over to reveal an answer. The answers will be predetermined, but you can write in anything you like. You’ll use your Arduino to choose from a total of 8 responses. The tilt switch in your kit will help replicate the motion of shaking the ball for answers.
The LCD can be used to display the answer. The one in the Arduino starter kit has 16 columns and 2 rows, for a total of 32 characters.
The register select (RS) pin controls where the characters will
appear on screen. The read/write pin (R/W) puts the screen
in read or write mode. You’ll be using the write mode in this
project. The enable (EN) tells the LCD that it will be receiving
a command. The data pins (D0-D7) are used to send character
data to the screen. You’ll only be using 4 of these (D4-D7).
Finally, there’s a connection for adjusting the contrast of the
display. You’ll use a potentiometer to control this.
The LiquidCrystal library that comes with the Arduino software
handles all the writing to these pins, and simplifies the process
of writing software to display characters.
