Hi friends,
I have searched this forum also but couldnot find the perfect match for my project
I was googling all over for designing a gearshift 7 segmeny indicator but unale to find one.
Now, I am an electronics student, and i have to design a project on Gear shift 7 segment indicator for a bike.My bike has 1-down and 4-up gear pattern.
I want to design a 7 segment gear indicator. But i donot know from where to start, Which devices to use, whch circuit to use. Please guide me to make a simple circuit for my project.(I want to keep it as simple to assemble as possible).
Thanks

 

The shift level is exposed to a lot of environmental wear and tear, plus the shaft into the transmission is very short (I'm assuming a motorcycle here). What device were you going to use to track the position of the shifter? I suspect all else becomes easy after the shifter can be tracked.

There is a detailed article on a gearshift indicator that basically compares speed to rpm to calculate & display gear.

The post previous to yours is more than 4 years old. The link is likely to have disappeared from the internet.
However, the poster is still around and may find similar content.

 

Hello,

You could also take the effort to look it up in the Internet Archive:

Doesn't this run afoul of the automotive guidelines?

 

Yep.......
