How It Works
-
The laser diode points at the phototransistor, and if any obstacle gets in the way the phototransistor will pull an input low.
-
The Arduino Mini is used to make the system voice activated. I used an edited version of this uSpeech Library to make this happen.
-
The PHOTON board is used to send an alert out if there is a fall.
-
I used the MIDI connector to allow for easier and cleaner wiring of my project.
-
I used all of my transistors in this project as switches.
-
The diodes are meant to limit the voltage to the laser diode and vibrating motor.
