The button states could easily be read by using an Arduino’s analog input. A Pro Mini model was chosen for its small size as it could be housed in the radio compartment of the dash.

Arduino Defined Arduino is described by its makers as “ an open-source electronics prototyping platform based on flexible, easy-to-use hardware and software,” whatever that means.

When the Arduino code sees the button getting pressed, it brings the corresponding LED pin high and starts a fade out timer using the SoftPWM library by [Brett Hagman].

This Arduino-based Pomodoro timer project also uses this 25-minute cycle. Once you push the button to start the timer, it will run for 25 minutes, display a count-up timer and a "Study time!" ...
