Hi all,
Right now i am making a wearable project and am using Bluesmirf Basic connected to an Arduino board (both purchased from sparkfun).
Bluetooth is really good because its so simple to set up a connection between computer and microcontroller (simply connect bluesmirf to GND,5v, Rx, Tx) and i use bluetooth dongle to set up serial connection.
However, it is very power consuming.
I am wondering whether there is any RF modules out there which work similarly to bluesmirf. i am looking for something i can easily connect to arduino board and set up serial connection with my computer to send data to the board.
Thanks
