The Nintendo Wii Nunchuk was released in December 2006. It features an analog stick, two buttons, and a 3-axis accelerometer. Due to its low price (around $5 for a used or counterfeit Nunchuk) and I2C bus support, it became an easily accessible option for those looking to add an input device to their project without much hassle. Without further […]

Introduction We designed and built a glove to be worn on the right hand that uses a Machine Learning (ML) algorithm to translate sign language into spoken English. Every person’s hand is a unique size and shape, and we aimed to create a device that could provide reliable translations regardless of those differences. Our device

Introduction The objective of this project was to create a two-wheeled balance bot able to traverse a flat environment and adjust itself to shifts in position and weight, using a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) feedback control loop to keep the robot upright. The balance bot is essentially a wirelessly controlled segway that leans its body forward and

Our project aims to take the fun of a Wii Remote and translate it to real life. The AccelCar is a remote-controlled car that is controlled by the way that a user tilts the remote, similar to the way Mario Kart Wii is played. The angle of the tilting determines the speed and direction in
Introduction There are very few ways to improve one’s skills in conducting a live band. Practicing by conducting a real band requires coordination of many people and conducting along to pre-recorded songs does not provide feedback on the accuracy of the conductor’s selected tempo. The system we designed uses a glove with an accelerometer to

For our 4760 final project, we built a virtual bowling game interface on a black and white Television in which the ball can be controlled by the glove which has the flex sensors and the accelerometer attached to it. There are 5 flex sensors on the glove to detect the ball grasped and the ball
Playing Games in PC is always fun. Play with joy stick with out key board is some more fun. No joy stick still no problem u play with your Android smart phone. First i think it is a very simple program. But want to jump lot of huddles to reach the goal with my resources.

Sending out a little one to “just go play outside” is a great way to get them moving, and out of your hair for a while. Once they start riding bikes though, it can be a bit more scary. What happens if they fall and you are inside talking to Aunt May? Are you sure
Story I have been collecting data from Raleigh’s trails and parks for the last couple years. My primary platform has been a custom Arduino board I developed for low-cost (hey, these things may get damaged or stolen) and long battery life. I wanted a connected sensor to provide current data and, after looking at various

ADXL335 accelerometer sensor is a MEMS (Microelectromechanical systems) sensor which can measure static acceleration of gravity in tilt-sensing applications, as well as dynamic acceleration resulting from motion, shock, or vibration. The accelerometer sensor is used in mobile devices, gaming systems, disk drive protection, image stabilization, sports devices, health devices and etc. The analog outputs are
