hello
i'm a quite newby to embedded systems and have some basic questions to you.
i'd like to build up a alarm clock which has some special features as:
- radio controlled
- LED projection on wall/ceiling
- fully customizeable awake times (this is the main reason), eg. mo, fri, 14.4.2007 .....
of course the clock needs to have a display with backlight (on keypress)
sounds like a normal alarmclock you can buy for 20-30 EURO but i was not able to find one that is customizeable at all.
my questions:
- what kind of embedded system can i use therefore
- do there exist ready-to-go starter kids where nearly all componets are present (at least CPU and mainboard/backplane)
- what are the costs i can count with
- anyone have some links where i can "start" up building an embedded system?
