Process:

•  Components used: Photon board, jumper wires, waterproof temperature sensors, 3 buttons, 3 different LED lights, resistors.

• Assembling Circuits:

Build basic circuits based on Online Tutorial (http://diotlabs.daraghbyrne.me/3-working-with-sensors/DS18B20/)

Trying one LED light.

Wiring.

Fixing mistakes and Organizing the board with Jesse’s help. 

 

Soldering jumper wires onto the temperature sensor. 

Waterproof temperature sensor

Wiring temperature sensor onto board.

• Coding process:

I downloaded library codes and tested the temperature sensor based on the online tutorial. (http://diotlabs.daraghbyrne.me/3-working-with-sensors/DS18B20/)

First I planned my pseudocode with the help of Professor Brockmeyer.

Based on the plan, I transferred the algorithm into actual codes. I did not change the library codes for reading temperature.

Testings:

Testing LED 1: White/Green Tea

Testing LED 2: Olong Tea

Testing LED 3: Black/Herbal Tea

Testing buttons(as variable state 1,2,3)

Testing the accuracy of the temperature Sensor.

Using setTemp to simulate a real temperature of boiled water.

After setTemp(180), temperatureF is changed to 180. The corresponding LED is lit.
