The goal of this project was to explore how objects, places, and people can be linked wirelessly. We began discussing how we might approach this task. Will this be for private or public use How many people will be interacting with the project Will we use wireless technologies or a direct connection to the internet What existing applications wil

l we take advantage of Will our project solve a problem Will it be an art piece Or will it just be for fun One idea was especially appealing to us using a mobile device to make physical changes in a public environment. After briefly exploring the idea of an environmental jukebox , we arrived at the concept of a mobile-controlled game of Connect Four. Connect Four (also known as Four In A Row , Four Up , or Fourplay ) is a one-on-one strategy game. Players take turns dropping their coloured chips into columns, the goal being to make a row of four marbles in any direction. Dimensions of the game board can vary, but the most common are six rows by seven columns. Connect Four was first trademarked by Milton Bradley in 1974; today, Hasbro sells several different versions of the game. We gradually refined our concept. Users log on to a website and either choose or get assigned a team/colour. Each team gets a limited amount of time to vote on a column; their piece is dropped into the column that received the most votes. The gameplay takes place on a large game board. A robotic system is responsible for dropping the pieces in the selected columns and resetting the board. Users play the game using devices they are already familiar with, and the mechanical feedback is very satisfying; we agreed that this new twist on a classic game could be very rewarding for users. To achieve our goal, we divided the project into three parts...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
