He’s outputting a graph of the samples on a small LCD screen. The best part is that since the extra chip is doing the sampling this can be ported to your microcontroller of choice.

Some of the parts you will require include an Arduino Mega 2560, 2.4 inch TFT touch Screen LCD with inbuilt SD Card Slot, 4GB MicroSDHC, 20 Pin ZIF Socket and others.

Assume that you are moving towards a complex microcontroller project bundled with blinkers, beepers, and a display panel. To link a standard 16×2 LCD directly with the microcontroller, for instance ...
