Inspiration
We STARTED by building an iOS app that would recognize a Myo armband gesture between two users and initiate an https request to get two twitter users to follow eachother.
What it does
However, this app makes a shape over a troll face ripped off Google according to movement coming from the myo armband gyroscope
How I built it
I downloaded a Myo processing library (https://github.com/nok/myo-processing) from a github user, nok, and implemented code from my older art projects. Use of this app necessitates Myo Connect running in the background.
Challenges I ran into
Creating this from scratch on the morning of the second day hours before the deadline. Not being able to go through with our original plan because it was too complicated.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
Adding a music file that I produced, with volume amplitude feedback according to the 'shake' coming from the gyroscope.
What I learned
A lot of Swift and Xcode during the first day, trying to build the iOS app.
What's next for trollhack
Adding extra functionalities, making it able to run without Processing.
Built With
