Just need some advice as to the direction to pursue hardware wise:
Basically have an EL Wire setup for 2 costumes. One will always be the ‘Master’, and the second will always be the ‘Slave’.
Both will be identical (Master and Slave):
Arduino Uno - R3
EL Escudo Dos - EL Wire Shield
8 EL Wires
Inverter, battery, etc
I’d like the ability for the Master to control the Slave. Programatically, I don’t anticipate any issues. I basically would like an EL Line on the Slave to turn on, or off, based on the command from the Master. The command should get from the Master to the Slave wirelessly.
Max distance anticipated - 20 ft
Simple commands sent. For example - Line 1;On. Next command - Line 1;Off
Don’t really need any special handshaking, or receive confirmation, etc. Just have the Master send the command from the Arduino, out via wireless, and if the Slave is in range, receive the command and forward it to the Slave Arduino to process and control the Lines.
With the above being said - what approach should I use from a hardware perspective?
Thanks in advance!
