Programming Challenge 6:
WE BUILD A THEREMIN
(sensors & actuators)
We will finish this challenge in class. We have eight sets of equipment, so you'll have to team up. Have a look at our "EZIO Real World Sensors and Actuators" simulations webpage. Download the zipped files for the XP EZIO Control, unzip them and pull them into Borland. We will use this program as the basis for the challenge. Actually, there's much more in the program than we need, but it's already set up to read one analog device, and we will use an infrared range-finder to control the MIDI device. Look over the code for the XP EZIO Control and the code for Mini MIDI in order to identify the command lines that you need. You can copy the relevant code from Mini MIDI into XP EZIO Control to complete the Theremin.
To keep things simple, we will only use one analog sensor and no actuators. Of course, if you'd like to develop this challenge into a course project I can provide you with all the sensors and actuators you need.
To Hand In:
A printout of the code you wrote, signed by your team.
Only the executable file on a floppy, with an identifying label.
Have fun!!!
Go crazy!!!.
