Hi there,
I need to communicate readings of intensity values from a color sensor to my PC using arduino. I want to choose a wireless module between X Bee and Bluetooth. I don't need long range of distance and I want high transmission data rate.Moreover I want a cheaper one.I think Bluetooth is better choice because almost all PCs support Bluetooth. But I heard it is difficult to configure Bluetooth using arduino. Configuring X Bee is quite easy. What you think is good to go with?
I'm using TCS3210(Light to frequency convertor). I need data rate sufficient enough to transmit values of 16 sensors without much noticeable delay. I need a compact design and a cheaper one.
the bits is needed for one sensor is 8bits (R), 8bits (G), 8bits (B), 8bits (Sensor address).
the total bits per sensor= 32 bits
The total data rate= 32*16= 512 bits/sec
It is not high data rate.
