We designed and built an interactive bike game by integrating the TIVA LaunchPad with different electronic components, encapsulated in a clean mechanical design.
ME218A: Smart Product Design Fundamentals
An arcade game to inspire eco-friendly habits
Our game was centered around a biker who you help navigate to the store, then to school, and finally to a protest for environmental advocacy. The user must complete these activities before the sun sets (moves from the left all the way to the right).
This video demonstrates how our arcade game could be played.
The device requires you to crank a bike pedal to move the biker, using the left and right turn signals to orient him toward whatever location the biker is at. Air blows in your face proportionally to how fast you are cranking to simulate biking. Below is a demonstration of how the game is completed.
