Team 13 - Prototype review of Balan Wonderworld hat controller

1. For our Balan Wonderworld design, we wanted to create the inner component of the hat that would be the structural base. This is to test the main controls and understand what the inner structure needs before refinement. Tilting the hat moves the characters in 8 directions, shaking the hat swaps costumes, and pressing the button on top of the hat uses the costume's ability. With this inner hat design, and the outer hat design, we plan to have the inner structure sit on top of the head and connect to the outer hat using a 3D printed ball bearing mechanism so the hat can spin without interfering with the dead zone of the tilt. Questions: What would be the best solution to 3D printing the ball bearings model? Should we cut the model into pieces and model it so we can put it together as a puzzle? What would you recommend for cable management so the exiting cord doesn't interfere with the spinning outer hat?
