Introduction What is Snipertag? Snipertag is a variation upon the very popular ‘Lasertag’ game. In 1986, a company called Worlds of Wonder came up with the idea for a combat game that worked around a set of commercially produced toy laser guns and sensors. As of recently, many companies have picked up were Worlds of […]
Introduction: The basis of this project is to create the game fish on the Atmel board. In the game fish, the big fish eat the small fish, so your job is to eat the fish smaller than you while not getting eaten by those bigger than you. You �eat� a fish by moving close enough

Introduction Sound byte For our final project, we are redesigning the classic battleship game to suit the needs of engineers. We are removing the need for communication, but keeping the feel of battleship. So what are we really doing? Instead of having engineers mumble battleship attacks, all communication is handled by two micro controllers, one
Introduction: Our final project code calls for the implementation of an amusement game often bannered as “Test-Your-Strength” or less accurately (but more commonly) known as “Whack-a-Mole.” Our machine is in essence a miniturized version of what can be found in most theme parks across the world. Its construction involves a spring load plastic cap to

Soundbyte If you ever thought you couldn�t control things with your eyes, think again � here�s the game Snake that allows 4 modes of multi-level game play with buttons or with your eyes, using electro-ocular potential. Project Summary While brainstorming for a 476 final project that would be biomedical engineering-related, we stumbled upon the idea
Introduction For our final project, we used an Atmel AT90S8535 microprocessor to create a hangman game. The letters are displayed on a 16-character LCD, and are input (“guessed”) using a 16-button keypad. The 8 LED’s on the Atmel development board are used as our “hanging man” – one lights up for each wrong guess. We
Introduction Many of the simpler electronic games of the past decade can be easily programmed on the AVR microcontrollers we are using this semester, using only the lights and switches available on the evaluation boards. For our final project we programmed the game Simon using the AT90S8535 microcontroller chip and corresponding evaluation board. This is

Introduction We decided to create a virtual archery game for our ECE 4760 final project. This game consists of an ATmega1284P microcontroller, a TV for display, and multiple pieces of hardware. All of these devices communicate together to simulate a three-round game of archery with a target that is 20 feet away from the user.

I. Introduction This project is a portable battery-powered video game based on the 1984 cult classic PC game “Rogue”. I designed a hardware-based roguelike video game because I am a long-time Rogue addict and thought it would be cool to make a portable plug-and-play imitation. The project involved some basic hardware setup, including a Sega

The reason for making this project is that I was always fascinated by Conways Game of Life. It’s a great demonstration of the fact that simple things with a very simple set of rules can do wonderful things: spawn more of them, modify themselves, do logical operations, even create Turing machines. I suspect much more
