Mixed Reality Tic Tac Toe

Inspiration

We were thinking of fun ways to use a 3D printer interactively. Tic Tac Toe is a good fit because it does not need to erase the board.

What it does

Two players play a game of Tic Tac Toe using physical buttons. The 3D printer prints the game results on the board. Once the game is complete, the game can be removed from the board as a physical object.

How we built it

We used Arduino C++ for the input board, and Python to control the 3D printer.

Challenges we ran into

We had to learn the GCode protocol that is used by 3D printers, and ran into issues with the firmware that made it difficult to test the application.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We are proud that we are able to create a polished project
