Data & Observations
Building the transmitter and receiver and getting them to a working state is a challenge in of itsself. Getting this entire system up and running is a larger challenge, but if you followed the schematic and the hardware sections you should be good to go. Let's take a look now at the way the system works and what it is capable of.
After that demonstration you should be convinced that this system is pretty darn cool. It has a lot of simple ideas combined together to show you how a single sensor can be used to wirelessly drive almost anything, in our example we used a motor. The 8 speeds of the motor were quickly and accurately attained by varying the sensor's reading using our hand. Similarly, the debug LEDs and LCD output values consistent with the motor speed and further verifying the accuracy of the transmitter and receiver.
