Progress: Soldered wires to the OLED and got it displaying the correct readings from my new range finder module. I couldn’t show it in a video since I don’t have a way to connect the wires, I don’t have a wire cutter and didn’t want to ruin the wires and re-solder them again.
Problems: None so far, just need to solder and calculate my power needs.
This Week: I’m going to solder everything together on Tuesday, so I’ll attach the Arduino, OLED, and the range finder so that I can work on the lens and the battery needed. Hopefully I can get the right battery and charger circuit Tuesday as well, getting the wrong one and frying my circuits would be extremely unfortunate. Once I get the battery and charger I can finalize the housing which I can base off of the heads up display example from my first post.
