Engineering
A custom Arduino shield for connecting load cells and reading the measured force.
Description
A project for Panther Rocket Lab avionics subteam. A shield designed to connect load cells to an Arduino and read the measured force. The shield uses a HX711 load cell amplifier to convert the analog signal from the load cell into a digital signal that can be read by the Arduino. The shield also includes a voltage regulator to provide a stable power supply to the load cell and amplifier.
