[dorkbotpdx-blabber] Re: counting bicycles

[Fred Smith]

Was this discussed further last night? I'd be interested to see what
approaches are taken on the other side of the crystal's output.

Couple of thoughts:
For the stat/graph happy folks, it might be interesting to time-stamp
and store triggers of the device (as cyclists pass).

In the spirit of the original guitar-hero usage, an audio indicator
could also be triggered as cyclists pass (gas station style) - perhaps
triggering one of a set of randomized bike friendly sampled audio
greetings?

(Both of these ideas, of course, add significant back-end computing
requirements)
