Arduino Communicates with the "Web"
The images above are my schematic for assignment 6. There is a 128 * 64 OLED display and a rotary encoder module. The OLED display have its SCL(SCK) pin connected to pin A5, and SDA pin connected to pin A4 of the Arduino. The rotary encoder has its DT pin to pin 3, and CLK pin to pin 2 of the Arduino. I'm not using the SW(switch) pin, according to the data sheet, it don't have to be connected. Another switch is connected to pin 8 of the Arduino.
The IIC bus communicates rapidly with the arduino, if there are noise, sometimes the Arduino behaves weirdly or freezes. To compensate for that, I put a 22pF capacitor between the power rails of the arduino, the capacitors can ease the fluctuation of the power on the breadboard.
According to the web, two 4.7k ~ 10k Ohm resistors are required to pull-up the SCK(SCL) and SDA lines in the I2C bus. These resistors can let to better performance and more resistance to noises. I chose two 5.1k Ohm resistors that are available in the kit.
The above image shows the actual Arduino circuit build on breadboard. Note the transistor parts on the bottom right is not used in this assignment.

The above gif shows how this program run. The screen will first display a Mitsubishi logo for two seconds. Then it will display the current value of the rotary encoder, starting from 0. The user can rotate the knob clockwise to increase the value or counter-clockwise to decrease. Values won't change when reaching the 0 ~ 40 limit. Below the value is a small indicator that will also change its position based on the value. When reached the limit, if the user still rotates in that direction, small dashes appear beside the indicator to remind the users to stop.
On the P5.js "web" screen, there is a textbox showing the current knob value and the unprocessed knob value. Below is a slider with range 0 to 20. Below that, there is a "Update Knob Value" button that can update the value of the knob and display it on the Arduino.
Using the switch, a user can set the current value and display it on the P5.js "web" screen. The user can also slide the slider on the "web" and click the "Update Knob Value" on the "web" to update the value on the Arduino. On the "webpage", both the unprocessed rotary encoder value and the processed value are shown so users can check how the values are calculated. This is achieved by letting the Arduino send a JSON like string and let the P5.js server parse the string to get two values.
