Custom Development Work - Magnetometer Based Car Detection

My backlog of projects is getting a bit long so looking to get some help with a project to detect cars with a magnetometer based sensor in the roadway. I will handle the hardware design, just need the software bits.

Am open to creative ideas but have a few approaches that seem reasonable:

  • Modify an existing magnetometer library to include support for interrupts and SPI
  • Build a new Particle library (have the beginnings of this for the FXOS8700)
  • Use an inexpensive microcontroller of your choice to drive the magnetometer and simply raise an interrupt.

Happy to pay for your time. Whatever hardware / software and implementation developed will be open source and contributed back to the Particle community.

Please send a direct message if you have an interest in doing this as a consulting gig or respond on the forum if you would like to do this on the the community forum.

Thanks, Chip

Update - I am getting some help from a respected member of our Particle community. More to come as progress is made.

Thanks, Chip
