Build this awesome simple police car using the cardboard inside your Teagueduino kit! This 3-line program flashes red and blue lights on top of the car and lets you control the sound using the piezo speaker and a button. Don’t have the cardboard? No problem.

Here’s a quick tutorial to show 5 different ways to blink LEDs! One (Out_A): The easist way! Just set an output as a Tone between 1 and 30. Two (Out_B): Turn the light on. Delay. Turn it off. Delay. Three (Out_C): Use a variable (Var_1) to invert whatever it was set to last time. If it was on, turn it off. If it was off, turn it on. Four (Out_D): Use a variable (Var_2) to smoothly ramp the brightness up an down. Five (Out_E): Set the brightness of the LED using the random() function.

Here’s the basic structure for creating a For loop using Teagueduino. This lets you perform an action an exact number of times. For example, maybe you’d like to blink a light 5 times. The For loop in C look would look something like this: for(int i=0; i<5; i++){ // turn light on // delay for .2 seconds // turn the light off // delay for .2 second } In Teagueduino, we can use variables to accomplish the same thing like this: Var_1 = 0 + 0; while(Var_1 < 5){ Out_A = 1000 as PWM; delay(200); Out_A = 0 as PWM delay(200); Var_1 = Var_1 + 1; }

Ever want to intvert the value you get from a sensor? Wish the light sensor value went up in the dark instead of down? Or a button normally had a value of 1000 and became 0 when pressed? Here’s how. Just use a variable and subtract the value from 1000. Var_1 = 1000 – In_1; Then use Var_1 in your project where it’s convenient. Out_B = Var_1;
