Prototype team 20

Our controller is a glove modeled after Sonic's glove that uses color sensors and simple circuits to play the first Sonic the Hedgehog Game. Within the palm of our glove is a color sensor that performs specific actions based on the color it sees. The controller will come with a set of chaos emeralds, powerful items within the world of Sonic, each a different color of the rainbow. Players will reach for these emeralds to interact with and send inputs to the game. On the thumb and pointer finger are two bands, designed after the golden rings that Sonic collects in the game. By bringing these two rings together, it completes a circuit, allowing the player to send inputs to trigger jumping in the game

 

we have the 2 gloves the rings are for jumping and we cut the hole in the other glove for the color sensor, the emeralds we used paper but we will make real ones for the final

 Our circuit has a bread board, the playground, 2 tinfoil rings to be the rings, and a tcs3200 color sensing board which is using the paper for the colors in this prototype.

From prototyping I learned that I definitely need more secure wiring and longer wires I will have to get, The emeralds we make will need rubber bottoms to prevent them from moving around as that caused a lot of problems too.

2   questions to ask is using 2 gloves at ones hard, are we putting to much on the color sensing glove. And did the clicking the fingers together to jump look like it would be comfortable. 

In the video you can see me playing, using the color sensor to change directions and pressing my fingers together to jump.
