Lazer Duel

For our ECE 4760 final project, we designed and built a Lazer Duel game system involving two guns and a base station commucating over ultra low power RF tranceivers. We can shoot and detect shooting useing an IR emitter/receiver on the guns. The base station will coordinate the game by allowing two players to join and will end the game once a […]

EMG Signal Controlled Game

The idea of this project is to design and implement two channels EMG signal controlled video game. The player controlls the motion of the ball to the left or to the right to avoid the descending obstacles. Electrods will be placed to the back of the player’s hands to measure the voltage difference of the

Flex Sensor

HAND-GESTURE CONTROLLED ROBOT

High-Level Design The project can be logical separated into two different components: the glove and the car. The glove is the main way the user will interact with the car. Several fingers on the glove are outfitted with flex sensors to capture events when the user curls or uncurls figers. There are a combination of

Electronic Tuner Design

This project aims to implement an electronic tuner which is able to analyze sound samples and display the notes contained in the sound. It utilizes a PIC32 microcontroller, a microphone circuit, and a TFT LCD to achieve that purpose. The intuition of making this project came from the musical experiences of both of us. We
