1. Aid for the deaf

I wanted to make this for my dad who is deaf and has trouble understanding people when he is at the store. How to use it: 1. talk into the app 2. the message will appear on the LED screen

Step 1: Arduino Software and the LED screen (tinkercad)

#include <LiquidCrystal.h>

#include <SoftwareSerial.h>

 

LiquidCrystal lcd(13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8);

SoftwareSerial EEBlue(5, 6);

 

void setup() {

 

Serial.begin(9600);

     lcd.begin(16, 2);

     lcd.clear();

     EEBlue.begin(9600);

Serial.println("The bluetooth gates are open.\n Connect to HC-05 from any other bluetooth device with 1234 as pairing key!.");

}

void loop () {

     lcd.setCursor(0,1);

     lcd.print(millis()/1000);

if (EEBlue.available()) {

 

     lcd.setCursor(0,0);

     lcd.print(EEBlue.readString());

}

 

if (Serial.available()) EEBlue.write(Serial.read());

 

}

2. Spaghetti Measurer

I thought this spaghetti measurer would be fun to recreate and make it look like swiss cheese. I used tinkercad to make the 3D plan. 

 

Each portion is a separate measurment:

 

1 porton- 23mm (7/8 inch) diameter

2 portons- 29mm (1- 1/8 inch) diameter

3 portons- 38.5mm (1-1/2 inch) diameter 

4 portons- 45mm (1- 3/4 inch) diameter
