How would one add a beep or vibration peripheral? Not even sure if that's the correct way to say it but my goal is be able to make the puck beep and or vibrate on command.

...take a look at the links found in here.

To get started, you connect an ear bud with a resistor...

Readily and cheap vibration motors - such as found in cell phones - draw quite a lot of power: ~70mA... There are better ones around, but still the 'vibe force' is defining the power consumption: Datasheet for KOTL Low Power Vibration Motors.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```
Your code goes here

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
