I want to solve a problem I face every day through developing a gadget. I have been reading through your tutorials and think im up to the challenge however lack the knowledge on selecting the right parts for the job. From the research I have done I think I require the following however please suggest any additional parts that I might need. It would also be great if you could provide links to your suggestions. Thanks in advance!!
• Processor (Arduino)
• Load Cell (to measure a weight range of 1 to 700g)
• WiFi (transmit measurement information wirelessly)
• Powered from micro USB into computer USB
• 1 x LED
• Vibrate motor
• Buzzer
The gadget would measure weight transmit the results back to the sketch (wireless) to display results. The light, vibrate motor and buzzer are used as warning/action signals.
I would also like to send result notifications to my iPhone and warning signals. Obviously this will require a lot of development to get it to that point but that’s the challenge.
I hope I have provided enough info to help you help me
let me know if there is any questions you have. Thanks heaps,
Patrick
