I'm trying out how to make my project work, and it is really simple: An
IR emitter/reciever will control an electric motor's on and off. So
what I'd like to know is:
1) What kind of microcontroller should I use? I've played around with a
BS2 stamp, but frankly the price is too high for this project, and I've
no experience with the more generic PICs out there. It needs to be able
to send IR, tell whether or not we are recieving IR, and tell a servo
to turn when it isn't.
2) What will I need to program the PIC?
3) What other hardware will I need? I know that I need a power adapter,
microcontroller, IR pair, and continuous rotational servo... but would
there be anything else? Something a neophyte wouldn't think of?
4) What are considered your top bookmarks for PIC/small electronic
projects?
Thank you very much,
Hops
