2. What is “Knight Bright”? Knight Bright is a 2-dimensional, 100 (10x10) pixel tabletop interactive LED (RGB) gaming system. The primary motivation behind this project is to develop a fun, easy to use, user-programmable interactive tabletop.

3. Specifications and Requirements Dimensions20” x 20” x 6” WeightLess than 20 lb. Resolution10 x 10 Color Depth8-bit minimum color pallet CommunicationWireless to Device (range < 10 m) MemoryMust store at least 3 on-board games (approximately 30KB) Power< 200 W

4. Project Goals Use a (secondary) MCU to control an array of LEDs via LED PWM drivers Transmit the output of an IR sensor circuit into a (secondary) MCU Establish serial communication protocol that enables reliable communication between MCUs Successfully integrate Bluetooth capabilities into the project Develop an mobile peripheral application Successfully integrate user programmable and memory expansion capability Develop a host programming GUI environment

18. Sensor Cell Design General requirements – Each sensor must detect an object in front of the cell to provide input to the device – Each Cell must contain a RGB LED to provide output Primary Considerations – An intelligent design approach must be used to minimize the number of microcontroller pins needed for user interfacing – The group should also utilize cost efficient methods to meet the requirements
