Talking Measurement Tools

Older Arduino builds that combine sensors and speech output for real measuring jobs. The related Workshop posts are linked inside each project.

Talking Stylus Tracking Force Scale

An Arduino and HX711-based stylus tracking force scale that speaks measurements aloud, so turntable setup does not depend on reading a display.

Arduino / HX711 / talking measurement

Open repository
Project page Talking Stylus Tracking Force Scale A talking scale based on the Arduino Nano and HX711. Build article Build A Talking Scale With An Arduino, HX711 And The Talkie Library A brief tutorial covering construction of a talking scale using a 328-based Arduino, an HX711 module, and the Talkie speech library.

Talking Spirit Level

An Arduino and MPU6050-based talking spirit level that announces angle information, so levelling work does not depend on sighted readings.

Arduino / MPU6050 / talking measurement
