Inspiration

Inspired by the Stranger Things alphabet wall, where communication happens through indirect interaction with a shared structure instead of direct messaging.

What it does

Allows two separate worlds to communicate using a shared alphabet wall. One side selects letters, and the other side interprets glowing letters to form meaning.

How we built it

Built as a web application with a 26-letter alphabet grid. Letter states are synchronized in real time using Firebase.

Challenges we ran into

Designing communication without direct messaging, maintaining real-time synchronization, and keeping interactions simple and constrained.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Successfully implemented a state-based communication system that conveys meaning using only shared interaction.

What we learned

Learned about real-time databases, state synchronization, and designing communication systems under strict constraints.

What's next for Bryers-Wall

Adding multi-user support, improving visual feedback, and exploring other symbolic or constrained communication methods.
