Hey everyone, I am working on a project to accomplish one thing:
I am building a touchscreen LCD display that responds to messages send from a website. All it really needs to do is connect wirelessly to the web and login to the website and display messages. The touchscreen feature will be used to click on the messages and click Yes and No to messages received.
I am not really sure if microcontroller could accomplish this. I've seen some amazing PIC projects online, but I am still confused as to what the limitations of microcontrollers are versus microprocessors. At what point does the project become too complex for microcontrollers to handle for one to use a microprocessor?
Does my project require a microcontroller or a microprocessor?
Thanks everyone,
