Vani Mahajanam Week 1

What are your first thoughts on the research projects that you have been assigned and your mentors? My first thoughts on the research projects we've worked on so far have been very positive towards the following projects: the Simon Says Sparks Fun Kit project and the Tiny Watch. The Simon Says project was a good starter for deciphering the complexities of circuits, and how to understand them better. For example, I learned more about polarity within a LED bulb regarding the flat side (negative) and the non-flat side (positive), the purpose of resistors within a circuit, and how the breadboard's interior worked. The Tiny Watch project helped me learn how the components of a smart watch actually worked and how to replicate it. This was shown with the pulse oximeter, the accelerometer, and the pedometer. The pulse oximeter used red light to measure heart rate, which can be seen in any smart watch that measures BPM, the accelerometer showed graphs of the movement of the watch, and t
