Hi guys,

I am looking for someone to build me a simple belt containing a compass and a series of vibrating motors going all the way around the belt and an electronic compass module. The motor that is currently pointing north should vibrate, the others should be still.

Simple, right? Post any questions you have.

That's one of the things I am trying to find out. Make an offer based on the amount of work you think it will require.

Maybe I need to add some additional details:

I am looking for a belt containing a series of vibrating motors (15-20) like this one: http://www.pagermotors.com/index_files/Products/DiskL/DiskL.htm

The belt will also contain a compass module, something like this (or better):

The output of the compass module needs to be used to make the side of the belt pointing north vibrate.

I am looking for a quote for the labor and suggestions for the parts. I am not rich, but I am willing to pay you a fair amount for your skills and your time.

Thanks for responding. Higher resolution would be better, so part of the project might be to find a better module.

Are you interested?

Doesn't seem to be any interest here. Can you guys suggest a better place to look?

Thanks in advance!

I know of a number of effective compass modules.  As to vibrating motors, I think a simple display would be more accurate, effective and efficient.  There are numerous ways this could be accomplished.  I see the post is somewhat dated, so I wonder if the request is still active?
