In this post, I will outline a project that I plan to pursue (in full or in part) for my final project in this semester's Physical Computing class with Tom Igoe, and possibly for Introduction to Computational Media with Daniel Shiffman.
Scary Maze Game
For our physical computing midterm, my group made a scary maze game with a stuffed cat controller. The game utilizes a heart rate sensor and gets harder when the player's heart rate is elevated.
The Mechanical Turk’s Ghost, Part III
We have begun work on our midterm assignments for Automata, and we were asked to present our concepts for this week's class. I have decided to pursue my chess idea, the Mechanical Turk's Ghost, and will discuss its implementation in this post.
Trillion Year Clock
For this week's Automata homework, I experimented with extreme gear ratios. I plan to use what I learned to create a clock that will make one full rotation every trillion years.
