Greetings everyone. I come to you with a question about something I know nothing about. PIC programming. Im not looking for someone to write a program for me, this is actually something i would love to learn, i just need a push in the right direction.
The project is actually just a little light sensing robot that Ive made for my son. However what I would like to do is using the speakjet chip and the TTS256 text to speech chip, make this little robot talk. I would like for the robot to say phrases at random by have the phrases the robot says randomly selected by using a PIC with a/d conversion.
So basically how do i do that?
I would assume I can use some kinda of sensor sending an analog signal to a PIC. The PIC would then convert that signal to a range (something like 1-100). And then that result would play a phrase associated to that number. Say for instance I was using some kinda if microphone.
Microphone takes a reading of 2db, PIC A/D converts that to a 4, Phrase 4 is "Hello there".
Something along those lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Any links and general instructions on what to look into would be great.
