Hello Friends! I have overloaded my ambitions again and it seems one or two of my Halloween prop additions this year will require this situation or one very similar: one device using accelerometer/gyro to convert data into "dice" rolls except with plastic bones instead of dice (roll the bones, get it?). There will be one bone that does all the "dice" work. The work is read sensor, do math conversion to d6 roll result, print that result to serial.
I wish to have "dice roll" serial result sent wirelessly to another board receiving said serial and simply print what it gets on a 4x20 I2C LCD screen. Range no more than about 25 feet (wish to use duplicate system for a second, separate prop whose range is about 25 feet. The one I just described is obviously much less than 25 feet apart).
I have some experience with Xbee S2 radios, they worked pretty well but I imagine there's some new, slick board that will do the wireless serial more compactly than an Arduino board and an Xbee breakout board combo.
Cheers all
