Arduino session 2

What we did today:
pill box -> like this, except ours only had one side.

- we were given a pill box

How to let old people remember to take their pills?

Our solution: 
For example, when it is Monday, and the elderly person (I shall call him Grandpa Bob) needs to take 2 pills, the compartment labeled "Monday" will light up, and there will be two buzz sounds to alert Grandpa Bob that he has to take two pills.
Similarly, if it is a Tuesday and Grandpa Bob has to take 3 pills, the compartment labeled "TuesdaY" will light up and there will be three buzzes.

- To make the compartment supposedly light up, we used the Arduino software to program the LEDs to light up.

Ok it's quite blur but you can see the bright green thing among all the wires right?
That's the LED light :D
- Then Nadiya went missing for half an hour and me and Joh Ann had to go look for her xD apparently a teacher who recognised her engaged her in a nice friendly chat xD that lasted for half an hour.

Yeah :D
