Time and time again your Reflections suggest you are most engaged when projects provide the creativity and latitude to follow your interests. Furthermore, since you are a social generation you also like working with partners. Well, here's another one for you....

From your one-class introduction to Radio Frequency concepts supporting the nRF24L01's contribution to the RSGC ACES' Day Counter, you are asked to work with a partner to develop your own RF system over a short period of time (less than one week). You will present/demonstrate your device to the class on Monday April 28th.

Task

1. After a successful installtion of the RF24 library, you are to use your nRF24L01 devices together with any input (joysticks, potentiometers, rotary encoders, etc.) and output devices (Bargraphs, MatrixMadeEZ, single 7-segment displays, 4-digit displays, motors, etc.) to create a compelling system outcome.
2. There's not enough time to go to China for a custom PCB but you are welcome to request an ACES Perma-Proto to mount your creation more permanently, as I did with the ACES DES Day Counter Transmitter/Receiver pair.
3. You've got to work quickly. Email me by Wednesday Aprill 23 if you think I've got a part you need for your hack as I may have it at home and Thursday is that only other day we'll be together before your presentation.
4. Prizes will be awarded to the best in show. Emphasis: Creativity and functionality
