Hardware Programming Help?

Mee Blumenfeld: Very little programing is needed in terms that the algorithm for the device is fairly simple. You just need to use a low powered transmitter that doesn't have a very long range. The receiver detects the signal and either reports a binary output like (Detected or Not Detected) or an analog output that reports signal strength of the received signal. The weaker the signal strength the farther away it is.Thus for a binary signal your hardware only needs to be programmed for on/off detection if the signal isn't detected (off) than sound an alarm. OR for analog signal the hardware needs to make a comparison to a threshold level. Say your analog output reports a percentage of signal strength than you need to make a comparison to say 50%. If its below 50% sound the alarmThe programming that you need to do for the hardware depends on the type of hardware you are using, Most micro controllers (uC) can be programmed in C but they use different comp! ilers and interfaces to transfer the firmware (the Program) into the micro controller....Show more
