Reflection

It was overall an enjoyable project. I did however encounter some difficulties while executing it:

1. I burnt out a TMP temparature sensor after following the incorrect tutorial on setting it up. I have learned that the technical numbers of these components are very important to pay attention to. In addition, the current one seems somewhat temperamental; I would consider swapping it out or using a higher quality component in the fullness of time.
2. Getting the communication of emotion correct and intuitive was extremely challening. Subtlety is important and I spent many many hours tweaking the timings and algorithms. They could still use improvement. I have learned that the details matter in making things intuitive for people to glance at.
3. I hit up against the limitations of the LED and this project could be improved hugely by using a more sophisticated component.
