Prototype 2

Previous Project 2003 Wired a unicycle to control the up and down arrows. Only worked for games that focus on holding up to play Use current generator to measure motion

Work Completed Designed Circuit Programmed Microcontroller Designed Sensor Basic Assembly of first prototype Got Parts for second prototype

Current Work Assembly of 1 st prototype –Need to Add Relay –Clean up Assembly of 2 nd prototype –Taking it apart –Duplicate another circuit board Re-making parts in metal

Future Work Test the effectiveness of two prototypes Clean them up for presentation purposes
