Working on a single project over the course of the semester is one of my favorite ways to implement what I’ve learned and critique how much further I’d like my skills to come. In my user experience design class, we had the opportunity to design the user interface of an app from the ground up.Continue reading “User Experience Design: bard”

Another prototype! Yay! You can never have too many prototypes. Just kidding. Yes, you can, and I think I’m getting close. BUT this is an important one. It’s full name is: do I actually have the technical knowledge to write the code needed to make this website a success? (I call it “Form to Firebase”Continue reading “Prototypes: Form to Firebase”

Attending the talk by Hiroshi Ishii was an inspiring and enlightening experience. I’m very glad that I took the time to go. It is so easy to feel like there is nothing new under the sun, that everything interesting has already been done. Listening to Ishii speak was a wonderful reminder that new and innovativeContinue reading “Hiroshi Ishii on Pixels and Tangible Interfaces”

  In part one of the lab, we created a circuit with variable input. In my case, I decided to use a pressure sensor and a potentiometer to change the brightness on LEDs. In order to create this circuit, I first drew out a plan. Next, I connected the potentiometer and used the serial monitorContinue reading “Lab 3: Analog Sensor Box”

There were two parts to this lab. In the first, we were supposed to build a circuit with two buttons that controlled lights. Each of the buttons was supposed to make the lights have a different reaction. The second part of the lab was to create two breakout boards, one for output and one forContinue reading “Lab 2: Digital I/O”
