Excalibur Mechatronic Arcade Game

Project Overview

This project involved designing and developing a Sword in the Stone Arcade Game by Integrating & Callibrating Strain Gauges to see how much force is being used to pull up on the sword with interactive design concepts.

Key Contributions & Responsibilities

• Collaborated on the Game Design Process, Blending Hardware & Arduino Software.
• Implemented Embedded Programming to Drive Game Mechanics in game states.
• Utilized 3D Printing & Laser Cutting for Physical Components.
• Microcontroller (Strain Gauge) Callibration & Laser Cutting for Physical Components.

Skills

• Callibrating of Microcontrollers: Embedded Programming & Circuit Integration
• Game Mechanical Design: Fabricating Interactive Mechanics

Outcome

The project resulted in a Fully Functional, Interactive Mechatronic Arcade Game that effectively showcased the integration of digital and physical design elements. A lot of people also enjoyed the game as well, due to their ability to test out their strength without the worry of it breaking.
