Evening all,
I've had a cute idea, but I'm not sure how doable it is, or whether it's more suited to a Pi. I'd rather use Arduino if I could! I've used Arduino a bit, but not with wifi, or messing around with network protocols and so on. Mostly for fairly straightforward transducers and actuators.
Basically I have a couple of light up letters, my initial and my partner's. At the moment they're just battery powered with little switches, but I was thinking about hooking them up to a digital output each, and having them turn on when the controller recognises a given device (our mobile phones, through MAC address).
How feasible is this? Are there any particular shields or components that are recommended? Am I just barking up the wrong tree entirely?
Cheers in advance!
