Project Roadmap

Here I'm giving a brief overview of where I'll be taking my projects over the next few months. All of them use the PIC to control the project

Project 1 - Make a LED flash

Project 2 - Make a bunch of LEDs flash ala Knight Rider

Project 3 - Make a LED turn on when a switch is turned on and turns off when the switch is off

Upcoming Projects

a - Communicate with your PC using a serial connection on the circuit and Serial->USB interface on iBook with Java reading from the serial port.

b - Read a temperature sensor LM75 and flash a LED when temp. changes by a bit.

c - Link a and b together

d - Communicate with an old Nokia mobile using a serial connection to send SMS messages

e - Link c and d together

f - Add a wireless connection to project b to allow the sensor to be placed a long way away from the base station circuit

g - Link f and d together. Allowing you to SMS to the phone and get the current temp. sent back to you and also to set alerts and have the temp sent to a specific SMS when it changes by a certain amount.
