SquashT - Progress Update 2
After receiving the new boards for my SquashT project I have assembled and tested one of the boards with no problems so far. I have also applied a from of rubber called Sugru to protect the elements. Here are some images of the assembly and device comparisons:
Soldering the components to a board:
Top view of the new and previous device. With this version of the device the battery can be swapped, the image shows the battery disconnected although the battery usually sits on top of the components:
Bottom view of both devices, as you can see the new device is a lot nicer to look at, having its wires printed on the board:
Size comparison when strapped to a Squash racket:
