I have just started experimenting with my V5 brain and some Arduino sensor kits I have.
((WARNING: ONLY ATTEMPT IF YOU ARE COMFORTABLE WITH EXPERIMENTATION THAT COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO YOUR V5 BRAIN))
First off, I used https://kb.vex.com/hc/en-us/articles/4402846880788-Using-3-Wire-Digital-In-Digital-Out-Devices to determine what and where each of the pins were.
I used some jumpers and carefully inserted them into the brain (this wasn’t easy and I could see this going horribly wrong if you’re not careful).
Then I just grabbed a few sensors and gave it a try… I will give one example and more if there is any interest.
I found a ball/vibration/tilt/angle type sensor and made it turn the LED on if it was in the down position (see picture).
Here is the code I used:
Let me know if you would like me to add more detail to this thread if this is something you’re interested in.
