Hi,
I am a complete novice looking to start my very first project and after looking at some tutorials and video's I hope to be able to complete the project using Arduino, however I am not sure which Arduino I need? also any help identifying potential hurdles in the project would be a great help.
The Project - kind of like a reverse chess timer clock
Will be self contained using battery power supply
Will consist of 2 separate LCD(lets label one Red and the other Blue) displays, each displaying a time to count down from, this time should be set from an input device on the unit and be able to set both hours and minutes, not seconds although it should be able to display seconds when counting down.
After the time is set on 1 LCD a button will be pressed or held down(to lock the time) and then the time should be displayed on both LCD screens and can no longer be changed without a reboot.
There will be two buttons lets say a red and a blue button, when any one of these buttons is pressed the corresponding timer will start to count backward to zero, if the other button is pressed then that timer starts to count back to zero and the first timer stops.
The first timer that hits zero wins and flashes a corresponding red or blue LED.
Thanks in advance for any help
If you need me to clarify anything just let me know
