Hey all,
I have an itch I'd like scratched by ye wizards on high. I imagine that I can solder bits together but that's about it!
I have just started fencing (masked-men-in-elastic-tights-fencing) and would benefit from a training aid as described below:
A small wrist/weapon mounted device, probably driven by a 12V car-remote battery that signals 'hits'/touches from the switch on the tip of the foil (the weapon). Take a peek at this link for the minimum functionality: **broken link removed**
I'd like to be able to add a pre-recorded word/message instead of a beep, oooh, or how about a verbal count which can be set to various max's? Once the max count has been reached I'd like a tone/message generated.
I guess the speaker limits the voice capabilities (I'm imagining those thin piezzo type speakers found in greeting cards).
Does anyone have any pointers for the requisite parts?
Thanks folks.
