Accel Sensor

This is the code for the accelerometer argon, it transmits the data to the brain argon

Sonar Sensor

C/C++
This is the code for the Sonar sensor that transmits data to the brain argon and makes a light blink when the distance is too close.
// Pin Definitions

#define HCSR04_PIN_TRIG	D2
#define HCSR04_PIN_ECHO	D6

int sound = 0;
int led1 = D0; // Instead of writing D0 over and over again, we'll write led1
// You'll need to wire an LED to this one to see it blink.

int led2 = D7; // Instead of writing D7 over and over again, we'll write led2
// This one is the little blue LED on your board. On the Photon it is next to D7, and on the Core it is next to the USB jack.


void setup() {
  // put your setup code here, to run once:
  Serial.begin(9600);
 
  pinMode(HCSR04_PIN_TRIG, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(HCSR04_PIN_ECHO, INPUT);
  
  //LED Jazz
   pinMode(led1, OUTPUT);
  pinMode(led2, OUTPUT);
 
}

  // put your main code here, to run repeatedly:
  long timeTaken, distance;
  digitalWrite(HCSR04_PIN_TRIG, LOW);

  of object*/

Alcohol Sensor and Brain

C/C++
This is the alcohol sensor code that detects the amount of alcohol in the air. this argon is also the brain and receives data from the other argons and transmits that data to adafruit.

float sensorValue;  //variable to store sensor value
int score=0; //this will be your drivers score
int alcoholScore= 50; //how much your score will go up if you are drunk

int led = D7; //LED to test if the argons are communicating together
int count=0;


//Distance Stuff
int distance=0; //sonar distance
int disClose= 60; //distance that is too close
int sonarScore=1; //how much score will go up if too close to a car in front of you

//Acceleration Stuff
double acc=0; //accelerometer sensor data
double accMag= 2; //the amount of accel that is too much accel
int accScore=1; //how much score will up if accell to quickly


void setup() {
	Serial.println("MQ3 warming up!");
	delay(5000); // allow the MQ3 to warm up
