Hello Everybody!
I'm making a project which is essentially an audio player. In my project I have many audio files which are sorted in different categories.
For an example, Assume that my categories are 1) Home Automation 2) Car Electronics and 3) Drones
Now I have several audio files under each of those categories. ( eg : Home1.wav Home2.wav Car1.wav etc etc)
I want a system which can read aloud the category name first when turned on. Then I need to go through the categories with the help of 2 physical buttons. ( forward and back ) After I reach the required category, pressing a third button should get me into the category directory. Then the forward and back buttons must be able to cycle through the different audio files by name, and when I press the third button, the audio file must be played.
For this I came up with a few ideas. First I found out that I can use an arduino alone with a SD card module. I have never used this feature before so I am not so sure. My original idea was to store the files on an android phone and use the arduino somehow to control the phone. (Via bluetooth, WiFI or USB ) The audio output is given by the phone.
I would really appreciate if someone can give me a few pointers on how to proceed. Any new ideas are welcome. ( With any microcontroller or with any device )
The main point of the device is that it should be controllable with those 3 physical buttons completely. For resetting, a master switch is used to cut the power.
Thank you and have a nice day!!
