Hey guys, I've been playing around with an array of 10 LEDs and I'd like to make them bounce back and forth. I want the speed at which they bounce back and forth to be incremented by a sine wave function, but I don't know how I'd do that. I have it all written out and working, but using linear math. Here's the code I have for example (I know it's sloppy):
const int ledCount = 10;
int ledPins[] = {4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13};
int ledPinsReverse[] = {13,12,11,10,9,8,7,6,5,4};
int slowness = 0;
int boool = true;
void setup()
{
for (int thisLed = 0; thisLed < ledCount; thisLed++)
{
pinMode(ledPins[thisLed], OUTPUT);
}
}
void loop()
{
if(slowness==0){boool=true;}
else if(slowness==80){boool=false;}
for(int thisLed = 0; thisLed < ledCount; thisLed++)
{
digitalWrite(ledPins[thisLed], HIGH);
delay(slowness);
digitalWrite(ledPins[thisLed], LOW);
}
for(int thisLed = 0; thisLed < ledCount; thisLed++)
{
digitalWrite(ledPinsReverse[thisLed], HIGH);
delay(slowness);
digitalWrite(ledPinsReverse[thisLed], LOW);
}
if(boool==true){slowness += 10;}
if(boool==false){slowness -= 10;}
}
For reference if you're interested in building it and manually testing it, I simply have LEDs in ports 4 through 13.
Thanks in advance!
