Greetings >I'm told I need a pic controller for this and the engineer where I work says he'll put it all together and program it, but I need to find it and buy it first.
>Any help I can get on this will be greatly appreciated. I suspect there is a misunderstanding as what you say sounds high risk. Choosing the hardware certainly requires a detailed understanding of the interfaces to your lights, spark generators and actuators. As an EE, I would not like to be given an arbitrary PIC (chip or development board), and driver boards and try to put them together for a one-off project. I too vote for a small PLC - I have not done a detailed search but you might need 24 volts (two batteries) to have the widest choice.
