total rookie: I'd like to start

Former Member
Former Member over 16 years ago

I love technology and want to move my passion to the real electronic projects done by myself.

 

Hope I am smart enough to uderstand knowledge and do something with my own hans - the idea is to construct small electronic tool with one sensor connected to WiFi communication element or Bluetooth.

 

Could you give me directions to the right samples in the network? I'm looking for easy to uderstand turtorial.

 

Thanks!

    I'd possibly look at Zigbee as easier to integrate and cheaper. It would probably be easier for peop[le to answer your questions if you gave us more details of the project. What would you like your sensor to measure? What type of sensor do you propose to use? Do you have a microcontroller preference?

    HI Maciej Stachowiak,

     

    first of all, you will need to choose between bluetooth or wireless. Assumung that the transmission distance for you is within few metres, you can try bluetooth. I do understand that you are a rookie in electronics world. So I was thinking this article might be useful to you to understand what are the modules that you might need to develop your application.

     

    Hope it helps.Do let me know if you have further questions so that I can also learn from you too image

     

    Below is also the description of the basics of Bluetooth communication. By the way, are you doing this for your hobby or school work ?

    Cheers
