 Week 1




I have read the rant about basic electricity, DC power supplies, introduction of different components and the two readings rants. 
I also the attachment rant about smell in the e-mail that was sent by teacher.

I learn a basic concept about these basic knowledge, and I also learn a lot of new English vocabularies and so no.
The point of view in the Bret Victor, A Brief Rant on the Future of Interaction Design inspires me a lot, human capability is the thing that I really ignored before.


WEEK 2



In the third picture is my understanding adout the components structure of processor after I had read the rant.
I hope teacher can take a look and give me some error correction.


This is the vedio of practicing digital output and input.

This is practicing the analog input. I didnt use the potentiometer, but I use a pressure sensor to control the brighten level of the LED. So I have to change the circuit. I put a 10k resistense in series with the sensor in order to protect it, and then connect to the A0 pin. 

WEEK3


As shown in the third video, during my experiments, I noticed that sometimes the serial port wouldn't display the correct signal values. I spent a lot of time troubleshooting, but couldn't find the cause.
Finally, I discovered that the correct signal was indeed being generated, as shown on the oscilloscope. However, the serial port was unable to display it correctly.

WEEK4





Honestly, I don't really understand what the analog signal threshold is used for.

WEEK5

The tutorial was very clear and easy to follow. I feel like I've largely grasped the principles and operation of the two motors, as well as the H-bridge circuit control. I also have a basic understanding of the principles of transistors and relays.

Reading the tutorial before doing the lab was incredibly helpful; it felt great to learn first and then apply. After reading the tutorial, I completed Labs 1 and 2 in just about 15 minutes, which was incredibly quick.

I'm very happy; I've truly learned a lot, which is a great feeling.





WEEK6 MIDTERM



WEEK7


I tried for a long time, but p5js kept giving me an error saying that ellipse received a null value. Later I found out the problem: a serial port can only connect to one device at a time, and my serial port was occupied by Arduino. The serial port symbol on the website tab is very cute.


WEEK8





This week I completed the two-way communication experiment. I really hope the teacher can explain the code in the lab during class. My main difficulties are:

1. I am very unfamiliar with the syntax and logic of using WebSerial, so although I can understand the code (logically), I am completely unable to write and debug it independently.

2. I have problems with the sending and receiving logic of asynchronous communication. My current issue is that I don't really understand how data is sent and received, especially in two-way communication. I don't understand where the data is stored, how it is sent to the other party, or where the other party retrieves it. I feel confused.

3. I basically don't understand the triggering part of asynchronous two-way communication... I feel like my brain has completely shut down.

Therefore, I hope the teacher can explain these things again, starting from the very basics, because I am truly lost.

WEEK9






WEEK10




I'm really curious about how to encode my video onto an OLED screen, and I hope the teacher can explain the principles in detail. I find this part very interesting!

 WEEK1 I watched the video and read the article, and also briefly skimmed through the optional articles. I found the concept of "deep listening" mentioned in the TED talk to be the most insightful. The explanation in the talk was somewhat vague and general, so I did further research on this concept myself. Here are my thoughts: First, listening is a subjective experience, influenced by each person's background, and differs from purely physical "hearing." If I were to define "deep listening," I would say it is an acquired ability to perceive and understand; but I prefer its philosophical meaning: it is a way of observing the world and experiencing one's own existence by transcending personal biases and integrating one's limited life experiences into a broader historical and environmental context. Deep listening should encompass both time and space dimensions: Time encompasses both the past and the future. For example, the sound of a piano isn...

 WEEK1 I first brought my photo into Photoshop so I could use the Mesh tool to get the coordinates of any point. My main challenge was choosing which function to use to draw my image. I initially used Bezier curves, but I found their two control points too abstract and difficult to manipulate. I then tried curves, but again, I struggled to accurately control the curve's shape using the control points. Finally, I settled on the beginShape and endShape functions, which allow me to draw irregular shapes using precise point coordinates, which perfectly met my needs.

What I wanted to achieve was that as I moved the mouse, the pattern would disappear within the circular area around the cursor. First, I used a grid and a for loop to draw the pattern across the entire screen. Then, to determine whether a portion of the pattern wa...
