+6/24/23
+decided to start with ultra-sonic distance sensor. need it to read 
+distance, at distance<=x, pull pin low (trigger as button press)
+       --this can then activate LED strip animations, sound on Sound Board
+*found micropyton library (https://github.com/kfricke/micropython-us100)
+that will use. 
+downloaded into /home/pi/Desktop/microPythonProjects/sensorLib
+created directory inside microPythonProjects>sensoryWall
+have us100 test script to print distance and verify it works. IT DOES!!

+Sensory Wall
+
+Overview:
+create interactive wall with multiple ways of interacting with items, besides just buttons (buttons are included!)
+
+wall will have lights, as well as sound. At this time, no moving parts. 
+
+ease of design: create features in modular sections, control with MCU without wifi/bluetooth (need to be HIPPA compliant)
+
+all fixtures will have power toggle (need lights/sound to be turned off for quite time)
+
+**all materials from adafruit.com (product number after name/description)
+
+
+Fixtures:
+-Traffic Light
+       --can be used as indicator throughout the day/night. 
+       --can play Red Light/Green Light
+               --button for manual mode (switch red/green in Game mode, switch Red/Green/Yellow in indicator mode)
+               --toggle for game/indicator mode
+                       --inside game mode, toggle for manual or automatic
+materials:
+Tower Light (2993) (red/yellow/green/buzzer led tower light) NO BUZZER CONNECTION!!
+NPN transistor (756) x3
+MCU (using Raspberry Pi Pico) 
+toggle (3221) x3
+Arcade button (either 1191, 4187, etc, depending on availability/color/shape preference) x1
+TPS jack (36925) [to allow adaptive device to plug in to button and activate from adaptive switch]
+
+-RGB LED and pots
+       --RGB LED with potentiometer on each color line, allow individuals to play with colors of RGB
+materials:
+RGB LED (848), 10mm, 10 pack
+10k potentiometer (3391), 3 per RGB LED
+toggle (3221), 1 per RGB LED (put on ground, disconnecting ground will break circuit, turning off LED)
+
+-Twinkling Lights (have 2 strands)
+       --addressable RGB LED strands, can program animations/color change onto strip
+       --activate with button/ultra-sonic distance sensor
+       --any button gets TPS jack
+materials:
+MCU (Raspberry Pi Pico) (possibly 1 per strand, or may run both strands from 1)
+mini RGB Neon flex (4310)
+RGB Neon strip (3869)
+US-100 ultra-sonic distance sensor (4019) [1 per strand]
+Arcade button (either 1191, 4187, etc, depending on availability/color/shape preference) x1
+TPS jack (36925) [to allow adaptive device to plug in to button and activate from adaptive switch]
+female DC power supply adapter (368)
+Power supply (5v, 2A) (276)
+
+-Noods Web (will create 2 boxes)
+       --create frame to stretch n00ds across, allowing individuals to access with fingers and feel/pull. Need to ensure (as best as possible) that n00ds are secured against hard pulls/aggressive grabbing, but still allow individuals to feel/manipulate with fingers
+       --n00ds light up, let’s GLOW!
+Materials:
+MCU (Raspberry Pi Pico) x2
+red n00ds (5506) x2
+warm white n00ds (5503) x2
+lime green n00ds (5507) x2
+blue n00ds (5508) x2
+yellow n00ds (5509) x2
+pink n00ds (5510) x2
+resistors: if 3v -50 ohm (4293), 1 per n00d
+           if 5v -220 ohm (2780) 1 per n00d
+
+n00ds light up, not sure if want to have blink/pulse/try to have PWM breath mode 
+
+-LEDs on other MCU pins
+       --have more buttons/sensors and LEDs (fancy ones even)
+       --each LED needs resistor suited to it
+       --power supply to LED or MCU to turn off?
+Materials:
+green succulent LED (5481)
+yellow crystal LED (5428)
+RGB cat (color changing, not addressable) (5482)
+blue crystal LED (5455)
+Arcade button (either 1191, 4187, etc, depending on availability/color/shape preference) x1
+TPS jack (36925) [to allow adaptive device to plug in to button and activate from adaptive switch]
+
+-LED Audio Matrix
+       --using microphone connected to MCU, analyze ambient volume and display on LED matrix as visualization
+materials:
+PWM RGB LED matrix (5201)
+PDM MEMS microphone (3492)
+MCU (Raspberry Pi Pico)
+
+-Sound Board
+       --include sounds into design
+       --board allows for up to 11 sounds to triggered via pulling pin low
+               --different options for trigger type once pin pulled low (random sound, play only on button press, play full sound/repeat until released…)
+
+materials:
+US-100 ultra-sonic distance sensor (4019)
+Adafruit Audio FX Sound Bar + 2x2W Amp 16MB (2217) x1
+speaker 3”,4 Ohm 3 Watt (1314) x2
+Arcade button (either 1191, 4187, etc, depending on availability/color/shape preference) x1
+TPS jack (36925) [to allow adaptive device to plug in to button and activate from adaptive switch]
+toggle (3221) [power toggle]
