Blinking LED With Analog Input Using Arduino

This program will allow adjust the speed of a blinking LED with analog input. Follow this patch to connect a potentiometer to your Arduino board. Then put an the long lead of an LED in pin 13 of your digital in/out, and the short lead in Ground.

/*

* AnalogInput

* by DojoDave <http://www.0j0.org>

* Turns on and off a light emitting diode(LED) connected to digital

* pin 13. The amount of time the LED will be on and off depends on

* the value obtained by analogRead(). In the easiest case we connect

* a potentiometer to analog pin 2.

*/

int potPin = 2;    // select the input pin for the potentiometer

int ledPin = 13;   // select the pin for the LED

int val = 0;       // variable to store the value coming from the sensor

void setup() {

pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT);  // declare the ledPin as an OUTPUT}

void loop() {

val = analogRead(potPin);    // read the value from the sensor

digitalWrite(ledPin, HIGH);  // turn the ledPin on

delay(val);                  // stop the program for some time

digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);   // turn the ledPin off

delay(val);                  // stop the program for some time}

analog input diagramProgram a flex sensor

A Flex sensor changes resistance between 10k Ohms (straight) and 40k Ohms (bent). Follow this schematic to patch a flex sensor to your Arduino board. Connect the long lead of an LED in pin 13 of your digital in/out, and the short lead in Ground.
