Process and Iterations

To begin, we started with the “Connected Doorbell” tutorial from the Drive. Then we began to modify the code to be applicable to our project. An additional button was added, the piezo was replaced with a speaker, a potentiometer was added to adjust volume, and 2 songs were inserted to replace the string of notes that was in the original code.

For demonstration purposes, we have 2 songs that couples can send back and forth to each other. Eventually, this would be a live-stream feature where two people could listen to any song desirable through the cloud. However, with our skills and the time constraint, we decided it would be best to have two songs that would simulate the “sending” and “receiving” functions. Our two songs are the Super Mario theme¹ and Beethoven’s Für Elise². Both these codes were pieced together and modified from online sources and adjusted to play with our connected speakers.
