hey guys,
i'm pretty new to arduino, thats why i could need an advice from you to show the direction i have to go.
thats what i would like to achieve:
think of an exhibition environment where the user is picking up an object. as soon as the object is picked up, animated infographics will appear on a screen and explain the object.
i could save the infographics as video or flash files, but how can i realise everything else?
is arduino powerful enough to play full hd videos and where would i store them?
which sensors do i need for the object recognition ( i thought about photoresistors?)?
An Arduino is not even powerful enough to produce still images that require more than a few hundred bytes of data.
A RaspberryPi or a cheap laptop would be needed for video. You could use either in conjunction with an Arduino if necessary.
There is another recent Thread about picking up objects and playing information for the customer. In that case the OP wanted to be able to identify which object was picked up even if it was put back in a different place in the display cabinet. I'm not sure that he found a solution.
Photo resistors can be used to identify the presence of an object, but not which specific object it is.
Thanks, it makes sense to use directly a laptop. I searched for some software and it looks "touchdesigner" could be the right one for my purposes, i will give it a try. Thanks a lot!
