I finally started with the CAD design for my morse code reader. I wanted it to look like the morse code sender things form the 19th century and i think i did a good job for my skill level. It’s nowhere close to being finished but i think its a good start. Also i recently switched from Fusion to Onshape and i’m finding designing much easier therefore i recommend you should also start using Onshape. It hasn’t crashed on me once. The hole in the design is where the button will be.
I made a long recording before this but it didnt save:(.During these 15 minutes i drew a sketch of the reader. But i did the more important things during the recording which has been deleted. I started over with the python code and i go tit working, but it was kinda shaky, long and slow. In short i wrote all numbers and added the morse code translations in 27 if functions. It was really slow and ugly and that encouraged me to learn dictionaries in python. After quite a lot of thinking i realised i had to convert the letters in morse alphabet to bits(morse_signal = data.decode(‘utf-8’).strip()). I finally got it working after that change
i am trying to send data from the serial monitor to python because its easier for me to work there.
