Arduino IR Pet
From HeatSync Labs Wiki
This is code used in teaching an Arduino workshop. It combines a 16x2 character LCD, an IR LED, an IR photodetector, and a piezo speaker to form an electronic "pet" similar to a Tamogachi.

HeatSync Labs IR Pet
Demonstrates the use of a 16x2 LCD display, IR emitters and sensors, Piezo
The circuit:
* LCD PWR- pin to GND
* LCD PWR+ pin to +5V
* LCD RS pin to digital pin 7
* LCD Enable pin to digital pin 8
* LCD D4 pin to digital pin 9
* LCD D5 pin to digital pin 10
* LCD D6 pin to digital pin 11
* LCD D7 pin to digital pin 12
* Potentiometer:
* ends to +5V and ground
* center ("wiper") to LCD VO pin (LCD pin 3)
* Photodetector:
* connect to digital pin 3 with a resistor in between, and GND
* LED:
* connect to digital pin 2 with a resistor in between, and GND
* Piezo Speaker:
* connect to digital pin 5 and GND
Operation:
* Once powered on and this code uploaded, the LCD should show a HeatSync Labs splash screen followed by health and happiness gauges.
* If you can't see anything on the LCD, try adjusting the potentiometer. If you see garbled stuff, press the reset button on the arduino or double-check your wiring.
* To increase the pet's happiness, "feed" its IR photodetector with infrared light (possibly from its own infrared LED, or a remote control, or another pet's LED.)
* To increase the pet's health, "clean up" after it by making a loud noise into the piezo (try blowing on the piezo, it can act like a really weak microphone!)
* If you get continuous heart or smiley animations and noises, some of your sensors may be stuck on (i.e. the IR photodetector) or they might be wired incorrectly (my photodetector produces a 0 when active and 1 when inactive, for example.)
