Hi guys,
Are any electrical engineers here who could help me get a basic understanding if the following would be simple or difficult to engineer?
I want to insert a small vibrating motor (like this one for example Coin Motor Vibration Dc Motor Cellphone Motor 0820 - Buy Coreless Dc Motor,Coin Type Motor Vibration 0820,Health Protection Equipment Motor Product on Alibaba.com) into a piece of plastic. Then I want the user to be able to switch between different modes when/how often the vibration should occur (every 2 hours, every 4, every 8). Ideally with just one button, no display, maybe 3-4 small led lights to indicate which mode is in use.
What would I need besides the vibrating motor? Some kind of micro-controller, a battery and some LED and a button? How would one go about this with no electrical engineering knowledge at all? Who could I hire to help me design a prototype?
Appreciate hearing your thoughts!
