Hi Guys,
I have a helmet cam and a SanDisk V-Mate video recorder and I want to make a small circuit to start and stop recording with the push of a button...
I intend to fix an LDR right in front of the record LED and connect that to a basic circuit that lights an LED on the button so i know when its recording...
To start with I have:
I have a Pickit2 and a Low Pin Count Demo Board, I haven't done much with PIC's and what i did do was in C, from what I've read the timing has to be very accurate in order for it to work, does this mean i have to write it in assembly?
Basically on press 1 I want it to send the standby command wait for 2 secs then send the record command, the next time its pressed i want it to send the stop command wait 2 secs then send the standby command... how easy does this sound and what extra stuff do i need?
Thanks!
