  delay(1000);
  digitalWrite(ledPin, LOW);
  delay(1000);
}
```
Explanation

In this example, we define the LED pin as output and set it high (VCC) for 1 second, then low (GND) for 1 second, creating a blinking effect.

### Example 2: Reading Analog Sensor Values

In this example, we will use the Arduino UNO R3 board to read analog values from a potentiometer connected to analog pin A0.

  Serial.begin(9600);
}

void loop() {
  int sensorValue = analogRead(sensorPin);
  Serial.print("Sensor value: ");
  Serial.println(sensorValue);
  delay(100);
}
```
Explanation

In this example, we read the analog value from the potentiometer using the `analogRead()` function and print the value to the serial monitor.

### Example 3: Controlling a Servo Motor

In this example, we will use the Arduino UNO R3 board to control a servo motor connected to digital pin 9.

```
Explanation

In this example, we include the `Servo` library and create a `Servo` object. We attach the servo motor to digital pin 9 and use the `write()` function to set the servo to 0, 90, and 180 degrees, creating a sweeping motion.

These examples demonstrate the basic usage of the Arduino UNO R3 board and its capabilities in various contexts. The transparent acrylic case provides a protective and visually appealing enclosure for the board, making it suitable for prototyping and development.
