Task 1. Interfacing between a Photoelectric Sensor and Arduino

In Tinkercad (Tinkercad.com), we replace DFRobot Adjustable Infrared Sensor Switch
by a PIR (passive infrared sensor), which has similar properties and pinout.
In this task, please take Arduino Uno R3 board, PIR sensor, Micro servo motor, LED, and
100 resistor from the library and connect them using a small-size breadboard to make a
circuit as following.

Put the code for the Arduino:

#include <Servo.h>
Servo myservo;
int led = 6;
int pir = 2;

void setup() {
pinMode(led, OUTPUT);
pinMode(pir, INPUT);
myservo.attach(9);
Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
int val = digitalRead(pir);
Serial.println(val);

if (val == HIGH) {
digitalWrite(led,HIGH);
myservo.write(70);
}
else {
digitalWrite(led,LOW);
myservo.write(10);
}

delay(10);
}
 Click the button Start Simulation and describe what happens.

Task 2. Interfacing between a Rotary Encoder and Arduino

Make a circuit as following.

Code:
#include <LiquidCrystal.h>
volatile int count = 0;
int interruptPin = 2;
float speedRPM = 0;
LiquidCrystal lcd(7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12);

void encoderPulse()
{
count++;
}

void setup() {
lcd.begin(16, 2);
lcd.print("DC Motor Speed:");
lcd.setCursor(13, 1);
lcd.print("RPM");
pinMode(interruptPin, INPUT_PULLUP);
attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(interruptPin), encoderPulse, RISING);
}

void loop() {

lcd.setCursor(0, 1);
count = 0;
delay(200);

speedRPM = count * 6.25;

lcd.print(speedRPM);
}

 Adjust the potentionmeter and observe the number displayed in LCD.

 Show the pulse signal displayed in the oscilloscope (screenshot).

Task 3. Interfacing between 7-segment LED and Arduino

Replace the LCD in Task 2 by an IC 74HC595 and a 7-segment LED. Reference to the
code in Appendix 5.2 and details of 74HC595 shift register in Appendix 5.5 to connect
them to make a circuit and change the code in Task 2 to display the last digit of number
of rounds on the LED (i.e. if the motor rotated 478 rounds, the LED would display
number 8).

Task 4. Interfacing both Rotary Encoder and Photoelectric sensor to Arduino

Using the circuit in Task 2, add one PIR sensor to the circuit. Change the code in Task 2
to add one more function: if the PIR detect an obstacle, the speedRPM is reset to 0 (zero).
