Hwy just a general question that I couldn't find the correct forum to put this in.
But I see a lot of posts and coimments on project that are using the ardunio that say that is overkill using the arduno.
My project is simply making a lapcounter and laptimer for a 2 track slot car set,
Requirements are that it stores lap count for each track until lap count reset is hit.
Like wise the lap timer will display the lap time for each track aswell as one display with the fastest lap tim time until the lap timer reset is hit.
To me this is very arduno worthy for this.
The way I was going to do it was having lots of seven seg displays for all the displays and then have a timer for each track keeping time until a break in the ir signal (vectical to track).
is this a good way about going about this?
I am not sure how using the 11 seven seg displays. 3 for each time keeper and 1 for each tracks lap counter.
Should I look at lcds?
Thanks
