Work Progress and Last Week

Hi all!
We finally entered the last week stretch. During the past week I made lots of progress on my temperature project.

Selected Module (HR-LRS), plus 1/2 Antenna

Although the power consumption is quite high, the HR-LRS is the one that fulfills our needs in this case. Unfortunately after some workaround with the measurements which also includes the 2 second period of higher amperage (140mA) we verified that if we wanted to achieve the goal of a battery life for at least 5 years we would have to use expensive batteries like a 9V and adapt the Dev Board to use them, which on the long run would be costly.

I also manage to finish my resume about CE Marketing and European Directives.

A sample of my resume

During this week I will finish the range measurements and I will also start another project. This new project is about candy dispenser machines, how can I improve or arrange a way of effectively count the coins that remain at the end considering the exchange given and the quantity of candy sold.
