Question

Level 3: Add an RGB led to the circuit. Have a different light colour appear at each of the motor positions(0%,25%,50%,75%,100%). If the motor is at 100% and the user hits button 1(move forward) have the motor transition through all colours and position as it returns to 0%. Likewise if the motor is at 0% and the user hits button 2(move backwards) then the motor will hit all the colours and positions automatically as it moves to 100%. At this

Answer 1

The task involves incorporating an RGB LED into a circuit with a motor. The LED color changes with the motor position: 0%, 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%. Programming a microcontroller is necessary to manage the transitions and color changes when buttons for moving forward or backward are pressed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question pertains to creating a circuit that integrates an RGB LED and a motor, where the RGB LED changes color in accordance with the motor's position. To achieve this, one can use a microcontroller such as an Arduino to control both the RGB LED and the motor.

For example, in terms of programming logic:

• At 0% motor position, set the RGB LED to a specific color (e.g., blue).
• At 25% position, change to a different color (e.g., green).
• At 50%, another color (e.g., yellow).
• At 75%, yet another color (e.g., orange).
• At 100%, set the final color (e.g., red).

For the condition where the motor is at 100% and button 1 is pressed, or at 0% with button 2 pressed, you'll need to write a loop that gradually changes the light color while moving through the positions until it reaches the opposite extreme (0% or 100%). This would involve gradual PWM adjustments for the motor and corresponding color changes for the RGB LED.
