ABSTRACT
This design has 2 parts, the rain sensor, and the gauge itself. For
the rain sensor, grid lines were created with 0.5 mm thickness, and a 0.3
mm spacing between each lines. The more lines, and the bigger the lines,
the higher the resistance the sensor would have, and a higher resistance
for the potentiometer would be needed for the gauge.
For the gauge, we use 3 comparators, and uses an ADC type for its
structure. 50K ohms potentiometer and 1.5K ohms are set as voltage
divider for each op-amp. The potentiometers are used to adjust the
“light” of the LEDs.
