The plan was to implement more switches into the carpet-matrix in order to allow playing with more output possibilities.<br><br> | The plan was to implement more switches into the carpet-matrix in order to allow playing with more output possibilities.<br><br> | ||

The bottom part features eight and the upper part features six „circuit lanes“ that are located in a way so that they form a kind of matrix-grid when they are put on top of each other. <br> | The bottom part features eight and the upper part features six „circuit lanes“ that are located in a way so that they form a kind of matrix-grid <br> when they are put on top of each other. <br> | ||

As this did not work out (too many delays in the code, too slow, a lot of noise) I changed the design by attaching a separate wire to each of the eight „circuit lanes“ that go to the Arduinos digital input.<br> | As this did not work out (too many delays in the code, too slow, a lot of noise) I changed the design by attaching a separate <br>wire to each of the eight „circuit lanes“ that go to the Arduinos digital input.<br> | ||
Now there are 6 + 8 = 14 wires coming out of the carpet. 6 of them are used as „digital out HIGH signals“ and the other 8 are used as „digital in, normally LOW“ pins that check if a button is pressed.<br> | Now there are 6 + 8 = 14 wires coming out of the carpet. 6 of them are used as „digital out HIGH signals“ and the other 8 <br>are used as „digital in, normally LOW“ pins that check if a button is pressed.<br> | ||

I don’t exactly know why but the comments tell that these external diodes do not have to be added when using the keypad library.<br> | I don’t exactly know why but the comments tell that these external diodes do not have to be added when using <br>the keypad library.<br> | ||
