Inspiration - We wanted to create a product that would facilitate interaction between children in wheelchairs and able bodied children

What it does - It's a game that will play music when the wheelchair moves, and stops when the wheelchair stops. The individual in the wheelchair would control the game. When the music is playing, players should dance, and when the music stops, players should stop

How I built it - We used an Arduino with a motion sensor.

Challenges I ran into - We ran into some trouble figuring out how to get the music to hook up to the motion sensor

Accomplishments that I'm proud of - We were able to get the motion sensor hooked up to the arduino

What I learned - We were able to learn about Arduino's through the workshop and by figuring out how to hook up the motion sensor

What's next for Music Motion Sensor - The goal would be to add lights that would flash to the beat of the music and could be hooked up to the wheelchair. We hope this game will facilitate communication and friendships between able bodied and disabled children.
