Attiny Projects: Breathing Led

This document contains descriptions of three ATtiny projects: 1) A breathing LED project that uses the analogWrite function to gradually increase and decrease the brightness of an LED. 2) An LED controlled by an infrared sensor, such that the LED turns on for 1 second when the sensor detects IR light. 3) An updated version of a bike lighting project that uses an ATtiny microcontroller instead of an Arduino to control LEDs and an ultrasonic sensor, demonstrating how ATtinys can accomplish the same tasks as Arduinos.
