A counter for barbell training sessions

By Marco Ventimiglia on September 2, 2021

If you play sports in the gym or have a flat bench at home, this project could be useful for you. It is a counter that shows the movements made with the balance wheel on a display and, with each increment, a robotic voice repeats the number through a speaker.

The project is based on a Raspberry Pi3 model B which measures the movements made through an ultrasonic sensor HC-SR04.
