Parts of the Whole

 

The engineer sent a parts list to build the playback units. He says he's gonna use an arduino, a bunch of other stuff and a Sony USB recharge unit to power the thing while it's up. Still to be decided are:

a) IR Sensor,



b) Switch or remote-
control unit (which I'd like so people don't touch the thing),

c) Speakers: Still up in the air. The ones the engineer suggests are quite nice and small, however, may be too deep to fit behind the work (they measure 2.6x3x2.3 inches [6.6x7.6x5.84 cm])
Redirect: Now that there's a possibility that the panels may be LED, the speaker may not need to be flat-paneled--or that just might be a requirement.

The two speakers on the right also have to be tested for sound clarity. THe reason for going with a better speaker is that ambient sound has the potential of turning into noise.
More on that over the weekend.
