Aim
The aim of the project is to turn on the different shades of light
Problem statement
Adjusting the mood lighting color in the bedroom typically requires manual control. The challenge is to create a gesture-based mood light control system that can change the light color based on user gestures, providing an intuitive and convenient way to set the desired ambiance
Material used
Input: Ultrasonic sensor
Brain: TinkerSpace Brain Board
Output: RGB LED
Battery: 5V Lithium-ion rechargeable battery
Component description
Ultrasonic sensor
The function of Ultrasonic sensor is to detect the object and send the signal to the Brain unit (TinkerSpace board).
RGB LED
The function of the RGB LED is to emit light
TinkerSpace Brain Board
TinkerSpace board acts as brain of this project, its function is to monitor Ultrasonic Sensor and control the RGB LED.
Battery
5V Lithium-Ion battery is used to power-up this project
Working description
Case – 1: When sensor detects the hand distance between 10-20CM. The Ultrasonic sensor (input) turns ON and sends signal 1 to the TinkerSpace
brain board (brain). The brain board turns ON the RGB LED to RED
Case – 2: When sensor detects the hand distance between 20-30CM. The Ultrasonic sensor (input) turns ON and sends signal 1 to the TinkerSpace
brain board (brain). The brain board turns ON the RGB LED to ORANGE
Case – 3: When sensor detects the hand distance between 30-40CM. The Ultrasonic sensor (input) turns ON and sends signal 1 to the TinkerSpace
brain board (brain). The brain board turns ON the RGB LED to YELLOW
Case – 4: When sensor detects the hand distance between 40-50CM. The Ultrasonic sensor (input) turns ON and sends signal 1 to the TinkerSpace
brain board (brain). The brain board turns ON the RGB LED to GREEN
Case – 5: When sensor detects the hand distance between 50-60CM. The Ultrasonic sensor (input) turns ON and sends signal 1 to the TinkerSpace
brain board (brain). The brain board turns ON the RGB LED to BLUE
Circuit Design (DesignSpace)
Step 1: Open TCode App -> Create New project -> Open DesignSpace
Step 2: Connect the Ultrasonic sensor to INPUT 3 of the Brain board.
Step 3: Connect RGB LED to Output 1 of the Brain Board.
Step 4: Connect supply and test project.
