THE PLAN....

Right, so the plan for the next stage of SITELITE is going to be planning what components I am going to need to build the gadget, and the feasibility  of actually making this work. If the project is to be by the use of the internet, then no physical sensor's will be required, like movement or light sensors.. This may help me when it comes to the complexity of building the circuit as I have no practical experience of working with physical computing.. In theory all I would need would be a few LED's, bright ones that are compatible with a particular voltage due to the device being powered from the computer itself, and as it will need to be connected in order to operate, this would be the most practical means. In future however, the device could be adapted to use Bluetooth connectivity in which case the device itself would need an alternate power source. Perhaps a simple AA battery could be installed and power the device for a number of hours standalone. The only problem I would see here is that the Bluetooth connection would draw a lot of power and quickly....

Back to the point... I would require resistor's, in order to control the flow of current to the LED's, some Jump cables and my solderless Bread-board, I have managed to  buy a small one from the local Maplin store, it has enough space to work with and should fit inside a small product case for prototyping, and also the Arduino itself including the USB cable to connect it to a computer.
