Emotive Project: Code

Once the circuit is integrated, it is time to code in sync. Ultimately, the goal is when the person is close, the image will be switched to the Asian side, and when the person is far away, the image will be switched to the white side. At the same time, the yellow LED will light up when the image is on the Asian side and the yellow LED will be off when the image is on the white side.

In addition, if the person stands in front of the sensor long enough, the image will begin to switch constantly back and forth, and the LED will be blinking on and off, thus indicating that the person has reflected long and comes to term of the person's mix-raced identity. This mode is activated via a global count variable, in which the count number goes up each loop the person is close to the art.
