10 YEAR OLD PROGRAMMER - Arduino Project: "Mood Lamp"

Hello, my name is Joshua. I am The Homeschool Kid.

Today I am going to show one of my favorite arduino programming projects. It is called the "Mood Lamp". This arduino project came in a kit made for teaching arduino programming to kids and adults. This kit was made by https://mycreationcrate.com. I highly recommend that you sign up for these subscription kits.

The mood lamp is a Chinese paper lantern that turns on when it is dark. It does this by having a sensor that senses if it is light or dark in the room. The lantern also has different colored lights that change every 4 seconds. It does this because the arduino code programs the lights to turn off and on in different patterns.

The Sensor:

Joshua, that is pretty cool. I am hoping to get my oldest two sons, Caleb and Joshua, doing some of these projects. Keep up the good work.

Excellent job Joshua! How many arduino programming projects have you done?

Do you mean how many I have made, ore do mean how many I have rote about?

I was asking how many you have made. I am sure that you have done more than the ones you have shared here on steemit.

I have made five. I have five more I am trying to fix. Yes. I have made more then I have shared on steemit. I am planing on righting about more of these projects.

Thanks for replying back! I'm sure that those following you here will look forward to seeing your next project posting!

I think it's awesome that your learning code. I do similar work with programming building controls. I look forward to seeing more of your creations.

Good work Joshua I like this light. It have a nice vibe to it setting a nice mood so its filling it purpose. You should make these make some crypto

That is so cool!

Maybe we will do some Arduino too. I checked on eBay and it has some kits too!!

Thanks for sharing!

Hey pretty cool project you made.
Maybe you're interested in my post about a police light/horn signal arduino project. 😊
