How would I achieve that? Is arduino powerful enough to at least recognise data flowing from a CD? I want to control motor manually, move the laser and laser assembly. My goal is to make something like a Sony Discman, and I want to know what hardware I need besides arduino. I saw a post where someone suggested using the motor shield. Should I buy that or I can get over with just arduino and some other inexpensive parts?
That sounds like it could be an interesting project that could be a lot of fun! However, please keep in mind that we are not a free design or code-writing service. We’re more than happy to help with your design or code, but we need you to make an initial attempt. Please design and write your code, then post it along with an explanation of what’s not working properly.
-
Show Your Work First: Before asking for assistance, make an attempt to design or write the code yourself. Share your work along with details about what isn’t working. Only you know what you want!
-
Provide Clear Documentation: Since we can’t see your project, share an annotated schematic (best) or a clear drawing of your setup. Pictures are welcome, but avoid using Fritzing diagrams as they are wiring diagrams, not schematics, and are not ideal for troubleshooting.
-
Include Technical Details: If there is specific hardware involved, include links to technical information. There are often many versions of similar components, so precise details are essential. What version of sensors and a processor are we looking at.
-
Reference Resources: For additional help, check out useful links and tutorials: Useful Links on Arduino Forum. Post links to your sensors and the processors technical information.
-
Obtain a copy: of the Arduino Cookbook and complete several of the projects. Many of them will help you achieve parts of your goals.
