TinyDuino Processors & TinyShields / Tinyshield BLE - control LED doesn't blink

« on: May 30, 2015, 02:46:00 AM »

Hallo together,

I'm trying to use the BLE rev2 board and I was already able to find it through some Android BLE App but now its not working anymore. From time to time i was able to make it visible and with the same programm and no changed settings its not visible anymore. I also recognized that sometimes (and than its available) the small amber colored LED on the BLE Board is on, but now most time its off.
What does this LED say? i wasn't able to find anything about it in the code. Should it glow permanent? Is it possible that the board itself is not working properly?

Thanks for your help!

TinyDuino Processors & TinyShields / Project with Vibration, weight and BLE - Is it working like this?

« on: April 20, 2015, 11:35:10 AM »

Hallo together,

I m an absolute newbie all around here. Therefore excuse me for everything stupid
I need to write my bachelor thesis about an IoT-topic and implement the same.
All in all its a wearables-project which needs to get te weight of a bag, gives an output over an vibration and send some datas over bluetooth low energy to an app.
In the moment i m trying to figure out what i need to order, and what is fitting together.
So here is my Question: Following components are on my list to order. Will it work with this ones or am i missing something?

-Tinyduino Processorboard
-Tinyshield USB (only for connection)
-Tinyshield Protoboard
-Tinyshield BLE
-VPM2 Vibrating Disk Motor (vibration motor)
-Flexiforce A401 (weight sensor)
-some wires and resistors

Do i need anything else? Do i need a tinyshield motor x4(for connecting the vibration motor)?

Thanks to everyone. Would be a really big help for me to get to know if i m planning it right.
