Using all your newly-acquired hardware and software prowess, create a device which directly controls the brightness of an LED with a knob.

<br />

== Workshop Checklist ==

'''Learning Objectives'''

By the end of this Workshop, you should understand:

# What a microcontroller is

# How to compile programs for a Teensy

# The difference between analog and digital inputs/outputs.

# Using the serial monitor for debugging purposes

'''Measurable Outcomes'''

By the end of this Workshop, you should be able to:

# Use the Arduino IDE and Teensyduino

# Make an LED blink (Digital Outputs)

# Use a button to control an LED (Digital Inputs)

# Use a potentiometer (Analog Outputs)

# Change the brightness of an LED (Analog Inputs)

# Create a device that integrates everything we learned (control an LED's brightness with a potentiometer)
