Introduction: Arduino Based Shutter Glasses of Fear (AbSGoF)

With this shutter glasses you are able to experience fear and probably more.
Old Elsa glasses are connected to an Arduino. The glasses are able to switch every 8ms and can be programmed freely.
Possible modes:
-> random: Glasses are transparent most day and get dark for 10 to 30 Sec. This can cause fear.
-> epileptic
-> puke

Step 1: How to Connect

Connect the 2 Pins as seen on the Picture to free Arduino PWM ports.
Its the second and the third pin controlling the left and right LCDs. The first pin will control both.
On the other side connect 5V + and ground.

Thats it.

Activate an LCD with:
analogWrite(9, 40);
where 9 is your PWN port.
Deactivate with:
analogWrite(9, 0);

Possible improvements: Add 2 LEDs to enhance the dazzle effect.

Step 2: Code Used in Project

Thats how you activate the to Pin 6 connected LCD:
=======================================
int Pin6 = 6;
int saft = 40;

//activate:
analogWrite(Pin6, saft);
//deactivate:
analogWrite(Pin6, 0);
=======================================


Example, flickering LCDs with big delay:
=======================================
int Pin6 = 6; // LED connected to digital pin 9
int Pin9 = 9; // LED connected to digital pin 9

int saft = 40;

void setup() {
// nothing happens in setup
}

void loop() {
analogWrite(Pin9, 0);
analogWrite(Pin6, saft);

delay(200);

analogWrite(Pin6, 0);
analogWrite(Pin9, saft);

delay(2000);
}
