The issue is the goal is to keep it to where it doesn't need a device like a phone to handle it. It would just be a ticker that uses like your router and automatically updates or something.
Yeah, exactly. Needing a mobile phone to control it or a computer running 24/7 to control it just isn't that useful...
Well I won't be building it, so it doesn't help me, but hopefully it'll help an engineer. A little too big for my taste, though.
It'd be great if somebody found a wireless module for $10. All I found were $40+...
There have to be cheaper wireless modules, being that you can even buy USB WiFi adapters for $10-15. Sadly, I wouldn't even know where to start with any of this stuff.
