[PSUBS-MAILIST] compass

[Jon Wallace via Personal_Submersibles]

Alan,
You will need an arduino board, a bread board, and some wiring.  Check out sparkfun or adafruit for development kits.
When you have all the hardware, you will need to download the development application, load the code, then upload it to the arduino.
The easiest and quickest way to display the output is on the "console" that comes with the development application.  In actual use, an LCD display of some type is probably easiest.  Check out https://www.adafruit.com/?q=lcd as an example.

My tilt compensated compass arrived.Tiny little thing ( see photo ). Cost US 29:90, Bought from a British firm "robot electronics", but came direct from China!Now the fun starts, as I need to process the signal on an Arduinoor Raspberry pi & do an online course ( on what I am not sure)to be able to display it as a graphic on a screen.Alan
