I know nothing about microprocessors but looking into building this project I was told this is the way to go. I was also told it would be simple but I have no idea, websites looked very difficult.
My family and I are big into Chicago Bears football. Our basement is all Bears and the basement bathroom was just painted and decked out in all Chicago Bears. It looks really cool. I was thinking it would be great to turn the light on and the Chicago Bears Fight song begins to play. I could wire it to a light switch or a motion sensor. I just think it would be fun.
As you may have guessed, no one sells this kind of stuff. Here is exactly what I was told:
"Actually would be fairly easy to do with a microprocessor. They have ready-made PIR alarm circuits. Add some flash memory for whatever song you want to store. Put an ac/dc on it so you can plug it into the wall, and maybe a small battery for memory retention if the μP doesn't already have one. The μP's are typically easy to program."
I'm not sure what all this means but seems complicated. Could someone help me build this or give me an idea how to build this. Any help is greatly appreciated.
