All of these project were super cool. Its showed me that with patience and time you can do incredible things. He was very open about how difficult it was when he was building these and he also shared with us his eureka moments. He motivated me to believe that I can do this.
As I was building the arduino I had a lot of questions and things I wanted to find out to make this nightmare a little bit less scarier. He showed me ways that I can connect three motors into one arduino which will be affect by only one button. Another thing I learned from him is you can not turn all the arduinos at once because that will burn the arduino board.
Henry suggested that we shoud look at what pwm means.
PWM = pulse width modulation
PWM is a technique for getting analog results with digital means. Digital control is used to create a square wave, signal switched between on and off. This on - off pattern can stimulate voltages in between full on (5 volts) and off (0 volts) by changing the portion of the time the signal spends on versus the time that the signal spends off.
This basically told us that each motors should be turned on at different times to use the full 5 volts power as the coconut is heavy it would need it's all power.
