 RobotGeek Floormat Demo
 
 This example demonstrates the use of pinMode(INPUT_PULLUP) to read from
 a floormat switch. The code reads digital input on pin 2 and turns
 Digital Pin 4 HIGH when pin 2 goes LOW.
 
 The circuit: 
 Digital pin 2 -  Floor Mat Switch
 Digital pin 4 - LED / Buzzer / Relay / PowerSwitch Tail
 
 Since a raw switch like a floormat leaves the digital pin open we need to make
 use of an internal 20K-ohm resistor to pull up to 5V. This configuration causes
 the input to read HIGH when the switch is open, and LOW when it is closed.
