University Project - MOVI and WiFi

Hi All,

I’m working on my Thesis and looking at using an Arduino with MOVI.

I have a few questions and just wanted to ask someone with a bit more experience.


I’m after combining MOVI with Wi-Fi to send a signal to an actuator within a house.


I’m not sure what combination of Arduino/Wi-Fi shield to use with MOVI. I don’t want to buy one until I’ve made sure I can get all 3 boards working together.

Any suggestions?


Also, any suggestions on how to power the Arduino/MOVI/Wi-Fi remotely? (It will be fitted to a wheelchair). Any idea how much power it will use? I’m aiming to have it last a full day between charges.


Kind Regards,

Thomas M

Thomas,


MOVI works with most Arduinos. The issue is the WiFi shields pretty much sucked when I tried them. I am sorry to be so straightforward but that’s what I experienced.

What kind of commands do you want to send?
