- Arduino Nano: The main part is a cheap Arduino Nano, with the existing libraries it can use the connected hardware easily. It will act as a HTTP server, so setting up which rockets you are interested in can be updated through a web browser.
- Ethernet: The first version will use wired connection to download launch data. Using DHCP it can obtain an IP address automatically.
- Display: 8-digit 7-segment LED display is exactly fit for displaying the countdown days, hours, minutes and seconds. Displaying it's IP address with it is also possible for fast setup.
Nice project! This inspired me to create this thing:
