Hello,

I am a student. and i am new to basic stamps and
to electrical stuff. i was wondering whether basic
stamp would help in my prototype or not. in my
prototype tap tile sensors senses the position of
person and accordingly video should be projected on
the screen.i was wondering how i can connect the
sensor input to basic stamp and output to computer. it
would be great if someone guide me.

    Hi! Skoduru!

    I'm sure you can go with stamp as far as your imagination can go too. A good
    start with stamp is as I think all of us start and is with experimentation books
    like Scoot Edward's Programming basic stamp computer and Stampworks
    from Parallax inc. On thoses books you will find many examples of use different
    kinds of sensors for different applications and meanwhile you'll enhance your
    knowledge and skill in electronic stuff. You can also download all PDF from
    parallax.com

    good luck
    Rene

    What are your inputs and outputs. The BASIC Stamp is a very capable
    microcontroller that can deal with a variety of IO. If you can use
    simple contact sensors (switches) as inputs and a serial stream as the
    output your project should be very simple.
