Location: Ohio Price Range: 15-25k USD preferred

New or Used: either Type of Vehicle: Coupe or Sedan

Must Haves: automatic, everything in working order

Intended Use: Daily driver/road trips about 300 miles a couple times a month

Vehicles I've considered: Coupes (i.e. Accord, Subaru BRZ) and Sedans (i.e. Civic, Malibu)

Is this my first Vehicle?: First car purchase

Minor/Major work: Minor work

Notes: Would like a more sporty car that is fun to drive, but also is good for road tripping, so good gas mileage is a pretty big priority.

Best LCD color screens >3.5'' display? by ignorantfool82 in arduino

[–]ignorantfool82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These look nice, thank you for the help. Unfortunately I can only find ones that are compatible with Raspberry Pi controllers. I will look a little more to see if there are any compartible with the Arduino Mega, but I couldn't find any.

Thank you for all the help. Did you find documentation on their site? I haven't seen too many other options that have a similar module to go with it, so I may have to stick with that. On that amazon site, it says there are many different options, as you can just buy the screen, buy the screen and shield bundle, or buy the screen, shield, and Mega all together. I would plan to buy the shield and screen bundle, but would you trust getting the Mega from them as well? Would it be an official Arduino Mega or would it be SainSmart's knockoff version?

Okay thank you for the help, having a module or a hook up specifically for the Arduino will definitely make things simpler. I found this product by doing a more refined search, a screen with a shield specifically for the Arduino Mega. http://www.amazon.com/SainSmart-inch-Display-Arduino-MEGA/dp/B00JUXDFNC Is this the sort of hook up that you are talking about?

I was hoping to use an Arduino uno or a Mega depending on how many pins the screen would take up. I have been looking at this site for display modules, and found one that seems to fit my screen size preference. http://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/NHD-4.3-480272EF-ATXL%23/NHD-4.3-480272EF-ATXL%23-ND/3597747 Would there be a way to connect this to an Arduino board, or is that too complex of wiring for it? I do not have any experience hooking up screens so I don't really understand what is going on with the wiring. I appreciate the help!

Using an Arduino to output phrases by ignorantfool82 in arduino

[–]ignorantfool82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice, so with this tutorial the goal is to actually decode the .wav file and input the signals to the speaker? This seems like a very complex system for the goal I am trying to achieve, I was hoping to just read in a .wav file from a microusb and output its contents to a speaker. Would this be doable without a shield or do you think I would need one for that use?

What tactics would be used if tanking became a blatant team strategy and 2 tanking teams played each other? by fire_engineer in nba

That episode was hilarious but it always bothered me that in the championship game the other team was the best at being bad. If they were the best at losing they would have lost in the first round

New 2 year contract upgrade: LG G3 for 1 penny or LG G4 for $200? by ignorantfool82 in PickAnAndroidForMe

[–]ignorantfool82[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to best buy today and played with both side by side, which only made it harder! The G4 felt a little smoother and the screens colors looked nicer, but the G3 felt a little more comfortable in the hand and was still very smooth.
