Detecting pedaling speed on a stationary bike externally
I'm a software developer interested in creating an inexpensive device
that measures how fast I'm pedaling on my stationary recumbant bike and that communicates that information to my computer via USB or RS-232. Probably something along the lines of putting a magnet on the pedal and a sensor on the body of the bike. Ideally, it should be powered by the USB or RS-232 port itself. I can take care of the software part, but I know very little about electronics (just enough to do some basic soldering and some digital circuits). Can anyone recommend any existing [inexpensive] packaged solutions or describe how I can build an electromagnetic proximity sensor inexpensively? Thanks, Mark |
