This is an introduction to robotics series using the WHEEL-E robot platform and the Arduino IDE. WHEEL-E includes an Arduino microcontroller (Microchip's ATmega328p), sensors, LEDs, buzzer, display, camera, and motors, which we'll learn how to use throughout this series.
In this video, we program the ATmega328p microcontroller to use the ultrasonic sensor on top of WHEEL-E to measure distance to an object in front of the robot. By measuring the time-of-flight of the ultrasonic signal, and knowing the speed at which sound travels (in air), we can calculate the distance.

• Description:
In this video, I go over the process of building a device that allows me to turn 3 different analog voltages into corresponding level of red, green, and blue (RGB) color present on the background of a webpage. I use an ESP8266 connected over i2c to an ADS1115 4-Channel Analog-to-Digital Converter to translate analog voltages from 3 potentiometers into 16-bit digital measurements. The ESP8266 runs a webserver that serves a page and creates a websocket connection to that page. Then the ESP8266 sends the scaled ADS1115 values as part of a webpage served to web clients, using JavaScript the values set the color of the pages background in real-time!
