next for motoKomp: garage door control

29 July, 2010 (23:14) | Uncategorized

Here’s a really simple way to add a garage door opener to your motorcycle.
Unfortunately, it’s a bit limited. I don’t run around with my high beams on all the time. So we’ll use a microcontroller to watch the high/low beam switch. When it toggles a couple of times, the atmega in motokomp will activate the opener. I just ordered a new remote for it. When I pull the computer for the new mod, I’ll be releasing hardware specs, code, and work up a light weight version that doesn’t burn a full arduino for people who just want to get their speeds corrected.
