I am an MCT student from Howest in Kortrijk, Belgium.
My project is a smart Puzzlbox using Raspberry Pi 4. The Pi is used as the brains for the puzzles.
The Puzzlbox is made for children 10 years old and up. It has 4 different games that the user must solve in order to activate the end button.
Raspberry Pi 4B with 16GB SD Card
The LCD display shows the ip address and messages with instructions.
The neopixel ring shows the process of the player when playing
The 2 servo motors are used to trigger magnet contacts by magnets attached to sticks.
The RFID reader is used to start the game. The user can choose from 4 different colors RFID card.
The magnetic sensors are mainly used in the quiz game to check whether the correct answer has been given.
I read the BCD via the PCF8574N to know which number the user has dialed in the number game.
The MPU6050 is used to control the servos. When you turn the MPU, the servos turn with it.
#Features on site
