Arduino Wave Shield

beagles
beagles over 7 years ago

Hi All,

 

I have an idea for a project and it would be great to get some advice and tips.

 

The idea started out as a project for my newly purchased Raspberry Pi zero but the more the idea developed the more I found myself going back to my very basic knowledge of the arduino.

 

I want to make a movement activated, pre recorded voice.

 

I have purchased the ardunio wave shield for the sound bit and I have a very basic motion sensor and a speaker.

 

I also bought a mic but discussing with a friend they suggested to pre-record my message using my laptop microphone and then transfer it over to the shield.

 

What do people think?

Have I gone down the right path for the project I want to build?

Is this project a bit too complex for a novice?

 

If you have any links to youtube videos etc please comment below!

 

The first mission of mine is to learn how to solder as the wave shield isn't pre made.

 

Thanks

Kaylee :-)

    Hi Kaylee, This sounds like a great learning project. The motion detector should most likely have a high/low level output detecting motion. Use this change to trigger the playing of the wave file. I like…

    I recently connected a $2 mp3 player module to a PSoC microcontroller to play recorded audio when a button is pushed.

    An arduino would work just as well - the micro doesn't have much work to do. It might even be possible to connect your sensor directly to the mp3 player with no micro involved - depending on exactly what you want for functionality.

    Hi Doug,

    Wow that's cool.

    Do you have the project documented in a blog at all?

    Thanks

    Kaylee

    That blog is all there is right now. If there is something you would like to see, mention it in the comments under the blog and I will try to address it.
