Got a prototype working with an Uno, now sorting out a polished version on a Leonardo Tiny.

Nice work! The Wemos D1 Mini BTW has stackable proto boards

Here’s an IR setup I built

Installed and working.

Colleagues have already begun feature creeping requests for the next version haha.

Impressive how quickly you put it together, nice job!

zpyder:
Wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. I've learned a fair bit of VBA for excel I think my job in the last 2 years. Gave me a good enough coding foundation that once I got used to the syntax it was fairly transferable.

And then the electronics... So long as I think of the pins as integers or boolean variables that's not too difficult either.

The hardest bit is soldering and just knowing little tips and tricks like always needing a resistor on an LED etc. I've blown one clone mini Arduino up with a short circuit somewhere (I think) but they're pretty cheap so not too concerned.

Once I finish a Udemy course on it I've got several projects in kind. I want to make an air quality monitor (rotorua is very bad in terms of geothermal sulphur, smoke from wood burning stoves, and pollen) and a small robot to send under our house to try and figure out where the ants are coming in. I can crawl under there but it's super creepy and a squeeze!
