arduino.prototype_005 = LEDs in separate time
We still have not received the Flexinol yet, so we have focused on the code for this particular prototype with LED lights.
We were attempting to have the LED lights to go on and off at different rates, allowing for outputs going from synchronized to a more chaotic pattern.
Once the Flexinol is arrived, we will swap the circuit with the one from Prototype 4, where we have connected a series of relays with individual outputs and the LEDs to flexinol wire.

ardiuno.prototype_003
The following prototypes are experiments in the idea of multiple inputs and multiple outputs.
For example,
Single input for multiple outputs
Multiple inputs for corresponding multiple outputs
These prototypes are an extension of the past prototype with the flexinol wire. It is our hope to be able to switch out these LEDs
and plug in the flexinol wire instead; therefore, these circuits are built in the same schematic as it would be for the flexinol wire.
We also intent to integrate switches and photoresisters to the next series of prototype, so the movement of the flexinol wire can be calibrated.
