arduino bathroom night light

as part of a two day arduino beginner workshop we were requested to create a project. mine was born out of practicality: bathroom night light.

use case: you get the call of nature in the middle of the night. you don’t want to be blinded by bathroom light, so why not have a gentle red led slowly fade on, wait briefly before fading out.

here’s a slide show of the prototype. yes that is a take away container, but it made a brilliant diffuser! the schematic drawing was done using fritzing

finally the source code is available on github.
