+# LED Brightness
+
+For this example, we'll be using an LED on an Arduino board, and modifying it's
+brightness to make it fade in and out. Before we start, make sure you've got the
+`cylon-arduino` module installed.
+
+Let's start by importing Cylon:
+
+    Cylon = require '../..'
+
+Once we've got that, we can start defining our robot:
+
+    Cylon.robot
+
+We'll be using an Arduino, and communicating over the Firmata protocol. As well,
+we'll let our robot know about the LED we'll be modifying, on pin #3 of the
+Arduino.
+
+      connection: { name: 'arduino', adaptor: 'firmata', port: '/dev/ttyACM0' }
+      device: { name: 'led', driver: 'led', pin: 3 }
+
+Next up, we'll define our robot's work:
+
+      work: (my) ->
+
+We'll set some variables here: brightness will represent the LED's brightness,
+from 1-255, and 'fade' will be the brightness change on each tick.
+
+        brightness = 0
+        fade = 5
+
+Every 50 milliseconds, we'll be incrementing the brightness by `fade`'s value,
+setting the LED to that brightness, and reversing `fade`'s value if brightness
+hits 0 or 255.
+
+        every 0.05.seconds(), ->
+          brightness += fade
+          my.led.brightness(brightness)
+          fade = -fade if (brightness is 0) or (brightness is 255)
+
+And with that done, we can now start our robot.
+
+    .start()
