# concrete-sign

A concrete sign, where chalk letters are moved using Arduino and servos.

This repo contains code and material for an experiment I'll be building, made out of chalk letters installed on servos and synced via Arduino.

#### How to run

You need an arduino board with [`Frimata`](https://www.arduino.cc/en/Reference/Firmata) flashed on it to run this code. (Can be done trough the default IDE)

Install deps: `npm install`

Run the code: `node ./index.js`

You will be presented with a REPL that has a `letters` array in scope, which contains instances of [`Letter`](https://github.com/ghzmdr/concrete-sign/src/Letter.js). These can be used to move the servos.

#### Current Stage:

- Prototyping:

    + I'm exploring how I could manage the servos via code and which circuitery is needed.

    

    **Deliverable**: At least 2 letters in scale made out of cardboard.
