I have been playing with a list of little projects lately and they all seem to need the same things, a display, some basic applied math, and logged data points or send/receive of basic switching functions.
I have never written a phone app but there is literally a bluetooth device and app on every corner in america now and I feel both lost and behind because I don't know how to get started! Can someone guide me to the right place, site, documents, etc?
I will try to explain one of my devices just for an example.
I need to setup a device to test and monitor the temperature of something. I just need to build a basic device with a uC and program it to test the temp at say every 5min, then send that data via bluetooth. If the bluetooth connection is not available, simply retain in memory until connection is enabled, etc. Probably missing a few things there, just getting an idea.
I would need to set the time on the device so I would like to use a phone app to set the clock. As part of the phone app, all the data points would just need put into a basic excel sheet or something for mapping.
I would like to be able to program and setup the device such as test intervals, max tests, max time, etc, with a phone app so no display is needed on the device.
Help please!
