NI myRIO Starter Kit seven-segment display.

Seven-Segment LED Display

This is lab 2 of 39 in the course

by Dr. Ed Doering | Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology

This project teaches students how to display information using the array of LEDs that make up a seven-segment display. Students complete activities of component demonstration and interface theory, in which students can apply to future integrated projects utilizing this component. Through these activities, students follow steps to demonstrate correct operation of the LED display, watch videos involving theory, and participate in a short activity after each video.
