Something Spooky with Arduino Nano

Get ready to make something a little spooky 👻 Join us as we build something fun for Halloween! 🎃 We'll work with a new piece of hardware to these workshops, Arduino Nano! Combined with a couple of LEDs and an ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04) to detect an obstacle near by, we will build a skull that will light up as it detects near by obstacles. Should be a lot of fun and I hope to see you there! He

Get ready to make something a little spooky 👻

Join us as we build something fun for Halloween! 🎃

We'll work with a new piece of hardware to these workshops, Arduino Nano! Combined with a couple of LEDs and an ultrasonic sensor (HC-SR04) to detect an obstacle near by, we will build a skull that will light up as it detects near by obstacles.

Should be a lot of fun and I hope to see you there!

Here's a list of parts that will be used:
- Arduino Nano: https://www.amazon.com/LAFVIN-Board-ATmega328P-Micro-Controller-Arduino/dp/B07G99NNXL/
- HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensor: https://www.amazon.com/ELEGOO-HC-SR04-Ultrasonic-Distance-MEGA2560/dp/B01COSN7O6

GitHub Repo for project: https://github.com/brandmooffin/Arduino-LightUp-Skull

And one more thing! Huge shoutout to General Provision for allowing us to use their space for this workshop!
