Inspiration

Bop it is a very fun game that translates well into the Arduino set up! And it needed a notifier!

What it does

Depending on what color the light flashes, either bop it (press the button), shine it (flashlight on the photo resistor), or twist it (twist the twist sensor)! For the notifier you either press the button on your phone to light it up, or press the button on the breadboard to light up the light on your phone!

How we built it

Design

For bop it notifier, our design was to have one LED and one button. We used Blynk because it was interactive. The wiring was not too bad. All the code really does is loop and check to see if the button on the app was pressed or on the breadboard and it updates the state accordingly.

For bop it, we decided on the photo resister sensor, twist sensor, and button since those seemed pretty interactive. The light seemed like a good way to notify which action to do. The lights are blue for shining a light on the photo resister, red for twist, and green for bopping (the button). For coding, we basically just loop through bop it. Every loop a new random number is generated that is different than the previous number. Then given the number, it either runs the photo resister function, twist function, or button function. Within every function they are checking to see if the player does any of the actions, but only if a player does the right action will they get points, otherwise the score will go to 0.

Also, we have a quick second part of the video demo demonstrating score here: https://vimeo.com/542695759
