The implementation concept is based on the detection of the action of the gyroscope to make the snowboard. Use a small nano board to make an mp3 expansion board. Use sd expansion board to do music storage built-in music decoding chip decoding. Finally, the Bluetooth module is matched to the Bluetooth headset.
In fact, the name should be called open-air snowboard anti-slip stickers. In the implementation, all the hardware only needs to be embedded in a snowboard anti-slip sticker, so that no matter what snowboard, only the snownow open-air anti-slip sticker is attached. It has become an open source ski board. This will also be beneficial to future commercial development. (And explain to everyone that the non-slip sticker is not just a decoration. It is a weapon that acts as an anti-slip when you stand on the holder.)
There are two sets of power supply systems, one is a solar power supply system, the solar panels are embedded in the anti-slip stickers, and the solar cells are used to continuously charge the batteries. The other is a wireless charging system for perfect waterproofing.
