Wireless quiz controller

thingiverse

This project consist of a wireless quiz controller housed in a laser cut acrylics casing. It is made during a project in 'Design of mechatronics' on the Technical University of Denmark and is designed to quiz with a game server along with several other students. One of the two boxes is intended to try out the program with a Arduino Pro Micro. We did not make it work with the same libraries as for the Uno. If you find a suitable library please let us know. :-) We have also uploaded a simple version of the 'quiz server' that through the push of a button sends a struct of question options. This is to be uploaded on a similar device as the controller setup. You can read a lot more about the details of this project on our blog:http://mechatronicsgroupoprimero.wordpress.com/category/project-iii/ This you will need to rebuild the game controller: An arduino uno (two if you want to quiz) Joysticks with built-in button (same as on a playstation controller) Wireless communication unit: NRF2401L+ 9V Battery connector Jumper cables And the following libraries: OLED screen For the casing and tightening of components: An sheet of acrylic (5mm thickness) 2 x (50 cm x 20 cm) = 1000 square centrimetres 8 x M2.5 bolts + 8 x M2.5 nots 4 x M3 bolts + 4 x M3 nots Acetone to glue the box part together You should also add the following libraries to your Arduino libraries folder. A thanks and a shout out to those who made these available to us:https://github.com/stanleyseow/RF24https://code.google.com/p/u8glib/ Instructions Get all of the components Do the hardware setup. This is described as comments in the top of the 'Wirelessproject_Done.ino' Laser cut the box1_og_2.ai or .pdf file to get the parts for the casing Glue the bottom parts together with some acetone (it melts the acrylic a bit - and while it vaporizes the parts will weld together) DO NOT APPLY ACETONE ON THE LIT! As you would want to have access to the box - and retrieve your components again :-) Assemble the components with the nots and bolts in the casing You are now ready to quiz - when yo have applied power to the Arduino through a 9V battery.
