First of all I would describe myself as ignorant when it comes to electronics with only a handful of knowledge on the subject.. So if this project seems totally unreasonable for a newbie to attempt please tell me! Otherwise I really appreciate the help.
My aim is to make set of starting lights for Blokart racing. The way I would like it to work is:
- Has a button which starts a 1 minute countdown
- As the countdown hits specific times I would like a speaker to sound (any noise will suffice)
- As the count down hits specific times I would like corresponding lights to light up (see attached picture)
- When the countdown hits 5 seconds I would like the speaker to sound every second from 5 seconds to 0 zeros
- Once the countdown timer hits zero I would like the speaker to have a prolonged beep to indicate the start of the race.
Currently I plan on using a 12V battery to power it but I can upgrade if need be. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to start tackling this (in my opinion) huge project! Thanks
