Electronics deals with the controlled flow of electrons • The ability to control electron flow is usually applied to information handling or device control.
Electricity phenomena resulting from the Presence and flow of electric charge • deals with the generation, distribution, control and application of electrical power
Electric current a flow of electriccharge unit for rate of flow of electric charge is the ampere.conductive metal
Wires carry electricity and telecommunications signals
Switch (anahtar) electrical component that can break an electrical circuit
Resistors (direnç) produces a voltage across itsterminals that is proportional to the electric current V = IR
Potentiometer ? three-terminal resistor with a sliding contact that forms an adjustable voltage divider
Diode (diyot) allow an electric current in one direction and to block the current in the opposite direction
Light Emiting Diode(LED) electronic light source lower energy consumption, longer lifetime, improved robustness, smaller size and faster switching
Circuit a closed path or paths formed by the interconnection of electronic components through which an electric current can flow
Assignment week2 Imagine and create a concept for a fantasy interactive outdoor installation. This installation should be visually communicative with people around on street, square, metro, shopping mall, ext. based on physical interaction methods. Visualize your concept; explain functionality and your approach for physical interaction. Publish the content in your web-log. (before 1pm next Tuesday )
