Created November 1, 2012 14:59
Takes a potentiometer reading and controls dimness of 3 LEDs
// These constants won't change. They're used to give names
// to the pins used:
const int analogInPin = A0; // Analog input pin that the potentiometer is attached to
const int greenOutPin = 9; // Analog output pin that the green LED is attached to
const int yellowOutPin = 10; // Analog output pin that the ylw LED is attached to
const int redOutPin = 11; // Analog output pin that the red LED is attached to
int sensorValue = 0; // value read from the pot
int outputValue = 0; // value output to the PWM (analog out)

Add User Linux

Add user called newuser, when logged in as root:

$ adduser newuser

To grant root privileges, open this file with default editor (nano):

/usr/sbin/visudo

Add the user’s name and the same permissions as root under the the user privilege specification

"Hello World" for johnny-five Node.js Module
var five = require("johnny-five"),
board = new five.Board();
board.on("ready", function() {
// Create an Led on pin 9 and strobe it on/off
// Optionally set the speed; defaults to 100ms
(new five.Led(9)).strobe();
});

Created April 15, 2013 23:41
This is a simple script to demonstrate the REPL provided by johnny-five for interaction with an LED connected to an Arduino.
var five = require("johnny-five"),
board, led;
board = new five.Board();
board.on("ready", function() {
// Create a standard `led` hardware instance
led = new five.Led(9);

Created April 16, 2013 09:23
This is a Node.js server script using johnny-five and socket.io that updates a web page with values taken from an Arduino with a LDR and potentiometer connected.
var app = require('http').createServer(handler),
io = require('socket.io').listen(app),
fs = require('fs'),
five = require('johnny-five'),
board,
photoresistor;
app.listen(8000);
// function for serving the static HTML page

dan-mckay / servocosm.js
Created April 16, 2013 10:38
This code queries the Cosm API for a reading from a remote sensor. This reading is used to manipulate a servo motor that is connected to an Arduino on the host machine. It is a Node.js application that uses the johnny-five module.
var http = require('http'),
five = require('johnny-five'),
feedID = 35602, //30041, //87256
