Yes, the PIC can do it. Yes, PBP will be very useful.
Yes, if you are completely stumped as to how to connect this setup and you are new to the world of electronics, you are most definetely in over your head. Quite frankly, this is a simple project, for an experienced person anyways.
But, don't let that rant stop you in the least.
What kind of equipment do you have, if any? Programmer? Dev Board? Compiler, etc?
What experience, if any, do you have, programming PICs, or any MCU for that matter?
Made any blinky LEDs or anything like that?
