Introduction

Cylon LEDs In this experiment, we will create a Cylon (Battlestar Galactica) effect with LEDs. I get this request quite a lot when people are first starting to program arduinos.


Components Needed

  • Freeduino or Arduino or clone
  • USB cable for Freeduino
  • Freeduino development software - download here!
  • Solderless Breadboard
  • Hookup wire 22gauge solid
  • 8 LEDs -same color is preferable
  • 8 1K resistors

How to

  • See the fritzing diagram
