Notes and code from hack the house

[kirahowe]

This is the firmware for the motion sensor/magnet sensor/led setup from hack the house Nov 11-13 and some notes about setting it up and where we found resources.

Next steps for this are:

• making it work with the thermocouple temperature sensor that came with the maker kit (we were not able to get meaningful readings from it)
• fix the delay(5000) call. We want to sound the buzzer after the magnet sensor has been apart for more than 5 seconds, but the problem with delay is that it freezes all other execution while it finishes.. so if someone pulls the magnet sensor apart for 5 seconds, the buzzer goes off, then they put the sensor back together, the buzzer will still ring for at least 5 seconds. The language has a millis() function that returns the number of seconds since the device booted that I was trying to use to manage the timing instead of delay
