Re: Detector Building C
Thank you both. I was just unsure of this because I seem to recall the trial event rules specifically mentioning LCD displays

Re: Detector Building C
Does anyone have any idea when the examples for legal sensors other than thermistors will be put on soinc?

It may be referring to the list of legal and illegal sensors provided with last year's trial rules:
https://www.soinc.org/sites/default/fil ... ensors.pdf
I'm not entirely sure that the list is current and consistent with the 2019-20 rules, but from a glance (since I haven't reviewed the list since May) it looks like everything that was legal last year is legal this year.

Re: Detector Building C
On Amazon, there is an "Elegoo Starter Kit" which is basically the same as Arduino but a different name brand. Can I use that for the competition or are we restricted to using an Arduino/Raspberry Pi/TI Innovator microcontroller board?

Re: Detector Building C
Would it be alright to create our own waterproofing on a thermistor? As far as I know the rules states you can not use preconstructed ones which I assume allows you to make your own?

Re: Detector Building C
Yes, this is allowed. In fact, the event expects you to have waterproofing: in competition, the event supervisor will be testing the durability of your device by submerging it underwater. As part of your design log, you'll be describing how you made your detector waterproof, so this will help the event supervisor to tell that you made the waterproofing yourself and that you didn't use a thermistor with waterproofing already applied by the manufacturer.
