Video 14: millis() and map()ΒΆ
This tutorial focuses on using millis() for time tracking and map() for value conversion in Arduino, showcasing practical applications like timed button responses and LED brightness control.
Millis Functionality: millis() as a time-keeping function in Arduino, starting from zero at program run and incrementing every millisecond.
Timed Events with millis(): How to utilize millis() for executing events at specific time intervals without halting the entire program, unlike delay().
Button Press Timing: Example of using millis() to detect a button press and execute an action after a set duration.
Map Function Introduction: Introduction to the map() function, which is used for converting numerical values from one range to another.
LED Brightness Adjustment: Practical demonstration of using map() to adjust LED brightness levels by mapping percentage values to the PWM range.
Efficient Coding with millis() and map(): Showcasing efficient Arduino coding practices by combining millis() for non-blocking timing and map() for intuitive value conversion.
