does anyone here know how to transfer the output of a scale to a raspberry pi using wifi?
That question is roughly on the same level as "how do i hack a computer"
Try breaking that down into smaller problems first
reading output using anything
then send it using wifi?
Which specific part are you stuck on?
both
What have you done so far?
nothing
everyday carry thread
>someone has handgun
the reason Im asking is because I want to check if there is a newspaper in our mail box
without having to go outside
So you have a scale
And you have a rpi?
I have rpi
but not a scale that is small enough
also do you know any small chink scales
I do not
Anyway, go one step at a time
tru
>i want to know if there's a newspaper in the mailbox
without having to go outside
thats the main point
photoelectric sensor
light barrier
using a scale is retarded
do u even ee
or you could use a piezoelectric element that detects the impact of something within your mailbox
endless possibilities
and a scale is the most stoopid of them all
holy shit the photoelectric sensor is pricy
>pricy
wat
119 pounds
lol
what the fuck are you searching
you can build a shitty one literally out of an IR LED and a phototransistor/photoresistor
ok
