I'm eagerly awaiting your response. The Final Code is attached here. The concept of this speedometer is very simple. If your motor bike have indication for all the gears, you can use the same method, and use additional pins of arduino, and a little bit changes in the code. I am using to show the diagram, because it is a good software to use for schematic and breadboard view. It's something I want to do for a project motorcycle I'm building but with one difference. I have very little experience with arduino and zero with nixie tubes.
. And that is then used to find the distance traveled in unit time, which is called speed. I build this speedometer for my own motorcycle. Mount the reed switch to the wheel axle at appropriate place and attach the magnet to one of the spokes exactly in front of the reed switch. Electric Tape Solder Wire Soldering Station, or Soldering Iron or Soldering Gun. Do you think doing something like that is even possible and if so you would help me make it a reality? If you are unable to do this, please let me know, i will help you.
I have added a splash screen in this version, you can amend it according to your needs. I will upload the same later. I am using it with my Motor Cycle, which has its own 12V Battery, so I am using the same battery as supply voltage, If you want to use it with your bike which do not have its own power source, then you should use a 9V Alkaline battery. And all other pins are available for future addition of functions, like engine temperature, fuel gauge etc. The indication i through a wire which is gounded when the gear is neutral.
If you are using the delicate glass reed switch, then you should place it in wooden case and secure it with hot glue, to prevent it from damage. If you want to use a hall effect sensor instead of reed switch, then change must be made to schematic as well as code. I am using a motorcycle, which has the only indication when the gear is neutral. Love the write up you did! I am sharing both the diagrams. . . .
