Introduction The purpose of this project was to design and implement a debugger for the ATmega644 that communicated through its JTAG interface and was capable of controlling program execution by setting breakpoints and accessing registers and memory. We have three main objectives in this report: To enable a user to properly download our code onto […]

Introduction The ultrasonic haptic vision system enables a person to navigate hallways and around large objects without sight, through the use of an ultrasonic rangefinder that haptically interfaces with the user via tiny vibrating motors mounted on the users head. The idea behind this project was to construct a sixth sensory system that interacts with

Introduction This project is implemented with a glove, resembling a conducting baton that analyzes gestures and interprets them into musical elements. Der Kapellmeister is a simple tool that tests a user’s ability in basic conducting, using a real conducting baton. As a user performs a gesture, the tool will display the tempo, time signature, and

INTRODUCTION Wouldnt it be cool to be this guy? Powerful laser shining into the audience, playing strings by sweeping your hands across the beams, rocking out in a room full of fog and fawning girls? We thought so. It turns out lasers are expensive, fog machines arent allowed in lab, and fawning girls experience some
