  miniProject 3 - Joey doesn’t Share Food Kyungchan Lim and Lu Liu (University of Tennessee) Overview Joey doesn’t share food. He will try to catch it back if you move his food. Materials and Parts Parts Description of the Part’s Role Count Arduino Nano The main brain of our project controls the input from the sensor and output to the led matrix 1 Servo Motor Function for LEGO movement 1 LEGO Model of Joey 1 Piezo Buzzer To play the warning 1 Short wires Connecting between Arduino, input device, and output device 11 Breadboard Base plate for connecting components 1 Design Ideas In this project, we developed 20 designs. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QtX90lASgLx2Bj2jmTFkHwJpkSG7mAFj693YpNIw9Eg/edit Demonstration Video of the demonstration: https://youtu.be/VoTGIfmALfk When you grab the food from Joey’s side, he will move and try to get the food back. At the same time, the speaker will show the warning alarm. Different speeding and direction to grab food will have different tone...

 miniProject2 - Lucky Cat Kyungchan Lim and Lu Liu (University of Tennessee) Overview Lucky Cat that takes coins. Materials and Parts Parts Description of the Part’s Role Count Arduino Nano The main brain of our project controls the input from the sensor and output to the led matrix 1 Servo Motor Function as an arm of the cat 1 Play dough` To design a lucky cat 1 Short wires Connecting between Arduino, input device, and output device 22 Breadboard Base plate for connecting components 2 Design Ideas 1. In this project, we developed 18 designs. https://docs.google.com/document/d/10q7xH4l83yFHoWOSMrrL_leqOIou58YQvdVhjuQUhEk/edit#heading=h.4jxj5vvg3lpt Initially, we designed to build a circuit that uses playdough. However there is so much possible variation with the playdough, so we were looking for our final design instead of trying multiple designs. We found that lucky cat could be implemented with the playdough and having an idea of user-interaction as an input, we decided to use a ...

 miniProject1 - LED Fire Place Kyungchan Lim and Lu Liu (University of Tennessee) Overview Simple LED Arduino kit with a ultrasonic sensor Materials and Parts Parts Description of the Part’s Role Count Arduino Nano The main brain of our project controls the input from the sensor and output to the led matrix 1 Ultrasonic Sensor Receiving an input with a sonar sensor 1 8x8 LED Matrix Displaying output of LED 1 Short wires Connecting between Arduino, input device, and output device 22 Breadboard Base plate for connecting components 2 Schematic Our schematic diagram. We connect Arduino to the breadboard, then connect the 8x8 matrix, then connect the ultrasonic sensor. (The diagram only shows the concept of what components would be used) Design Ideas 1. First, come up with an idea of what kind of games we can do on an 8x8 led matrix. Since the sole restriction on our project is using an 8x8 matrix, we start from this. -  Game design:      - Snake game    ...
