Futress Dash
My final project is a game revolving around my dog, Futress. Users control her using her favorite toy as the controller; to move right tilt the toy to the right, to move up tilt the toy upwards, etc. The goal of the game is move forward and avoid obstacles, i.e. things Futress hates that will make you lose the game. There is no specific end of the game or way to win. Keeping track of and trying to beat your high score could be seen as "winning".
This is me working on the game and Futress realizing I had another one of her favorite toy..
There is a MPU-6050 sensor inside of the toy with a gyroscope. Connected to the Arduino and the p5 sketch, the gyroscope values are read and translated into up, down, left, and right. This is what's inside the controller:
This is the diagram I followed to set up the sensor:
