The Idea
When we received our Raspberry Pi from QNX, we decided to dream big and combine as many of its sensors as possible with AI infrastructure to create a constantly evolving text-based adventure. In short, as the story unfolds, the user will be required to move in front of a movement sensor, heat up a temperature sensor, etc. to influence what comes next.
The Execution
This weekend, we implemented a divide-and-conquer strategy to ensure that we would be able to end up with the best possible project. Nick worked on implementing Gemini's API, David worked on understanding the Raspberry Pi's architecture and QNX's OS, and Ben worked on understanding the sensors' functionality, as well as building the website we used to display the adventure along with Troy.
The Challenges
While we were able to succeed in realizing our idea, it wasn't always easy. Learning how to use a Raspberry Pi with no preexisting knowledge was a tall order, and implementing Gemini's API forced us to implement a creative workaround to its 20 request per day limit.
