STMQRCode
QR code generator for STM32F407
Overview
STMQRCode is the project of QR code generator. It generates QR codes based on text stored in SD card and displays it on Nokia5110 display. Additionally it gives the opportunity to learn chinese radicals by flashcards module.
Description
The main step is to generate QR code based on text stored in .txt file on SD card. Limitation of length input text is related to resolution of Nokia5110 display and QR code size. User can store on card many files. A file extension filter was used to read the .txt file names and store them in a bidirectional, cyclic list. This list is used to navigate through the files. User can switch files by 2 external buttons in a row of 3 buttons mounted on the breadboard (previous and next file). Using middle button (in a row of 3 buttons) user may generate QR code based on text stored in chosen .txt file. If you push additional button, mode changes into learning chinese radicals mode. Then the screen shows the chinese radical and next to him QR code. If you scan QR code by app, you will know the meaning of radical. Two external buttons in a row of 3 buttons give you opportunity to change flashcards in pseudo-random way. If you want to go back to the previous mode, push additional button.
