Arduino Projects # 2

Wiring

1. Connect the WHITE wire to any of the GND (ground) slots. 

2. Connect the RED wire to the 5V (5 volt) slot.

3. Connect the GREEN wire to the 6~ slot.

Project # 1 (One LED On)

Project # 2 (Primary Colors)

Project # 3 (Each LED Different )

Continue the code from Project # 2 and use the color codes from here https://htmlcolorcodes.com to make all 10 LED's light up a different color.

**EXTRA CREDIT if you can make a rainbow or gradient pattern.**

Project # 4 (Fill Solid)

You need to select your own color and put it in the code.

Project # 5 (All LED's Blink)

Project # 7 (LED Chase)

Project # 8 (LED Back and Forth)

Project # 9 (Flash Colors)

Choose a sports team or country and have the LED's flash with those colors.  Use project 4 as a guide and repeat that code for each color.

Project # 10 (Create your own)

Combine projects together or come up with your own idea!

Here are some lines of code you can use. 

Color one LED: leds[0] = CRGB(255, 0, 0);

Color all LED's: fill_solid(leds, NUM_LEDS, CRGB(0, 0, 255));

Change the brightness of the strip: FastLED.setBrightness(255);

Don't forget FastLED.show(); after you have set all the LED's

You can also use a for loop (like in projects 7 and 8) to make something change.

Be creative and TRY....ask for help if you get stuck.
