Build a color-changing mini-lamp

April 13, 2018 By Øyvind Nydal Dahl Leave a Comment

If you want to build advanced things like internet-connected gadgets and more, you need to use a microcontroller.

The easiest way to get started with microcontrollers is using the Arduino.

When I was living in Berlin I did a lot of Arduino workshops.

One of the most fun projects I did with my students was the Weather-Predicting Mini-Lamp that would change color depending on what temperature it was going to be the next three hours.

It did this by connecting to the Internet, finding weather data from a weather-site, extracting the temperature for the next 3 hours, then translating this to a specific color using an RGB LED.

The Weather-Predicting Mini-Lamp project is a part of the Ohmify library. And if you want to get started, I highly recommend the course Getting Started With Arduino.

Have an electronics-filled weekend ahead!

Keep On Soldering!
