/* Pitch follower Plays a pitch that changes based on a changing analog input circuit: * 8-ohm speaker on digital pin 8 * photoresistor on analog 0 to 5V * 4.7K resistor on analog 0 to ground created 21 Jan 2010 modified 31 May 2012 by Tom Igoe, with suggestion from Michael Flynn This example code is in the public domain. http://arduino.cc/en/Tutorial/Tone2 */ // These constants won't change: const int sensorPin = A0; // pin that the sensor is attached to const int ledPin = 9; // pin that the LED is attached to // variables: int sensorValue = 0; // the sensor value int sensorMin = 1023; // minimum sensor value int sensorMax = 0; // maximum sensor value void setup() { // initialize serial communications (for debugging only): Serial.begin(9600); pinMode(13, OUTPUT); digitalWrite(13, HIGH); // calibrate during the first five seconds while (millis() < 5000) { sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin); // record the maximum sensor value if (sensorValue > sensorMax) { sensorMax = sensorValue; } // record the minimum sensor value if (sensorValue < sensorMin) { sensorMin = sensorValue; } } // signal the end of the calibration period digitalWrite(13, LOW); } void loop() { // read the sensor: int sensorReading = analogRead(sensorPin); // print the sensor reading so you know its range Serial.println(sensorReading); // map the analog input range (in this case, 400 - 1000 from the photoresistor) // to the output pitch range (120 - 1500Hz) // change the minimum and maximum input numbers below // depending on the range your sensor's giving: int thisPitch = map(sensorReading, sensorMin, sensorMax, 220, 3500); // play the pitch: if (sensorReading < sensorMax -50) { tone(ledPin, thisPitch, 10); } delay(1); // delay in between reads for stability }
