Physical Computing Assignment 2
Threshold Alert System - Live Demo
This is a simple interactive system that uses a dial, two LEDs (red and green), and a buzzer to monitor a variable in real time, and allows us to set a new threshold by clicking on the screen.
A small on-screen window displays the analog line and the threshold line.
The dial sets an analog value, which the system continuously monitors.
Below the threshold: The red LED lights up.
At the threshold: The green LED lights up.
Above the threshold: The buzzer sounds, indicating the value has exceeded the safe range.
Set a new threshold: Click anywhere inside the window to adjust the threshold dynamically.
This assignment helped me learn about analog input processing, threshold detection, output control, and interactive digital interfaces, giving hands-on experience with real-time monitoring and electronics interaction.
