Very good indeed!

Thats possible i guess, but it depends what you want to achive here. Arduino code and sensors are not the same as app development. Also connecting sensors to other things can be tricky with a smarrphone

@@logicron Thk you ever so much for replying. It's so hard to get a sound answer to simple questions nowadays. Well I did slightly over-simplify my questions. So I'm a retired physicist, bored, & want to disgn/build projects from scratch. *So for low lever control of sensors/actuators I plan to use FPGAs. An FPGA can be reprogrammed to produce any desired classic or recursion function in/output. In-fact any cpu/controller/electronics can be programmed into FPGAs but their performance is about ~3years behind current cpu/controller/electronics. FPGAs originates out of the military (ex: missiles, radars, etc) and are slowly coming into the civilian domain. FGPAa are hard to learn (& have community little support), low performance FPGAs are very affordable. *However every system requires some type of human interface for maintenance, repair, analysis, modification, config mgt, etc, etc best done on traditional computers. I was going to go with arduino/raspberry-pi but realized a smart phone/watch surpassed most of my needs. I assume the android high lever development environment will allow me to upgrade to better smart phones/watches independent of vendor & changing hw/sw. *Sooo the strategy would be develop/document the projects on traditional desktop computers. Transition the interface & system control development to a smart phone/watch. Finally transition system control development to a FGPA (& hopefully keep the profanity to a minimum, fingers-crossed ;). *Let me know what you think.

@@tombouie it really seems like you have a good base for doing a project like this and if the FGPAs is good enough to do what you need then thats great. For me who studied programming Arduino was a great entry to the world of electronics and the programming of that. Arduino is also very cheap to get started with and the sensors are really not much. For a newbie this is the way to go i think. Seems like you are a bit more advanced than that and tearing apart and using older smartphones is a great thing i think. Would be interesting to hear what kind of project you are looking to make :)

@@logicron Thks for asking; My main ultimate goal is just to keep my skills sharp in retirement. So my focus will be setting-up a competent/efficient/easy/etc work-flow for research/development & implementation/fielding/testing/maintence/etc of any/all projects I do. It's lots of mental work up-front but tend to make it easier in implementation in the end (instead of vice versa). For electronics projects I'll need a nice interface for some project (ex: smart phone/watch) and for others small smart logic for actuators/sensors (FPGAs). My 1st project will probably be a super smart inverter for a solar panel system. I do plan to only use building code approved equipment of course. However I'll do this to figure-out the best design/brand of smart inverter to buy & how to DIY fix them myself (instead getting a new one every decade): Inverters, How do they work ? kzfaq.info/get/bejne/p7yVeLWFmdTdqmw.html DIY Solar Panel System - How to Do it CHEAPER!!

@@tombouie Super interesting take on what you plan to do. Solar panels are a very interesting item in Europe right now so i would acually love to hear more about your super smart solar inverter. I play around with solar myself and use Victron Inverter for my small usage. Its awesome to use machines with solar energy

Glad I could help! Yes they will !

There is tons of guides on youtube what sensor do you want to use

Sure in the next video i make on the subject

No it comes without it

@@logicron can u able to suggest any microcontroller product?

@@matthew2696 i got an Arduino Uno for it

@@logicron how much cost of the microcontroller?

@@matthew2696 about 10-20 usd

I dont even know what HiLetGo is, so i can say with confidence this is not it

@@logicron oh, okay

@@koolduck8531 im pretty sure they are i check them out and it seems very similar, probably same factory :)

Thanks for letting me know. I'll work on my enunciation so you can keep up.

@@logicron "So I can keep up" ... these comments will be why your channel won't grow.

@@logicron I have no idea what this person is going on with. Perhaps their volume is turned all the way down? I had you at 1/2 volume on my phone with a rural highway 100 ft away; and I heard you clearly without any difficulty. You weren’t mumbling at all. I didn’t feel the need to say what I am about to, and instead I just turned down the volume to halfway. The only thing I could suggest is adjusting the music level to your vocal recording prior to mastering them. The music was a bit loud and was much louder than the voice track. Again, I just adjusted the volume on my side…. Problem solved.

@@GD-mg6pk thanks 🙏
