Greetings everybody, Kyle here.
As the title itself implies, I am in need of advice regarding what type of RF I should use for my project. I am currently engaged in a project to build an automated wireless Taekwondo Scoring System through the use of piezoelectric pads.
The idea is for the pads installed in the protective gears to absorb the blows from kicks and punches. The change in conductivity in the pads would send a signal to a transmitter which will be transmitted to a receiver away from the gear. The challenge now is to make the entire system wireless. With respect to that, I have heard that I can employ the use of RFs into the system to achieve just that. But after cycling through the list of products here, I'm confused as to which model should I be using for this project?
With that said, I will appreciate it very much if anyone can guide me through on this. Oh and here are the criteria that is required for the RF component for this project of mine:
1. Small
2. Low cost
3. Durable (Have to be able to resist punches and kicks as it is embedded into the protective gear together with the piezoelectric pads)
Many thanks and hope to hear your professional advice regarding this! =)
