Inspiration
We drop our phones a lot, so we figured we could make a game out of this
What it does
Measures how masterfully you can throw and spin your phone.
How we built it
Using React/Vite deployed on Vercel with Supabase as a backend.
Challenges we ran into
Getting the distance/spin detection to work. We needed to control for accelerometer placement in different phones, as spin affects the acceleration differently on various platforms. A fair share of math and physics were involved in the calculations of that.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
It works!
What we learned
A lot about accelerator API, as well as how to deploy, ship, and do live user testing, as we had to ask a lot of people to test on their phones.
What's next for The Flipoff
We want to launch globally and improve the algorithm once we have more data.
