Hello All! I am obviously new to the forum. I have been a lurker for a while with other projects and ideas. Today I need some direct help in my situation I was unable to find by searching.
On the weekends I run a live video recording at a local raceway. We recently added an in car camera that is wireless. I had the idea to have the option of turning the camera around (like nascar etc.) Also pondered vehicle speed, g-force, throttle position... etc etc?
I have used the arduino minimally with the mpguino and just the "basic" arduino tasks on this website and others. This project would be a big step for me.
My biggest problem that I see is I can't code very well... or at all. I can follow instructions, I can solder. I can brainstorm. I can copy and paste code (even change what pin might be used) but I can't write code from scratch.
I was planning on using the XBee Pro 50mW RPSMA - Series 2 (ZB) for the wireless communication due to the size of the track and speed of the cars.
Do you think this is feasable for someone in my position? Do you think I would be able to clobber together the neccessary code?
Has anyone seen a project guide like this online that I could follow?
Thanks for any and all help. I have thick skin so I don't care if you tell me it can't be done. Honesty is better! Thanks!
