hi there, I want to to build a proximity antenna sensor circuit that outputs voltage.
I will conect this sensor to the arduino board ( www.arduino.cc ) that can read this information and send to the computer, where I can then do wahtever I want with the information (just like a MIDI).
I found such a schemata at: http://asmir.theremin.ru/tsensors_design.htm
you can find it at Analog Theremin Sensor#3!
It says it works by the same heterodyning principle, and the diagram should be self explanatory to anyone involved with electronics and theremins (hopefully everyone who gets to read this.
But the thing is that I dont know anything about electronics or theremin principles... and it seems that the components labled as L1 are not clear, because I couldn't et a clear answer on what they are from everybody I know who has deep knowledge on electronics.
People, please, what are they?
it says they are stable coils around 200uh
but the symbol is for a transformer...
thanks a lot, alex
