Analog Control Panel

Gamification of hovercraft controls

This control room consists of a recycled LCD display that POV receives images from the Eachine camera on the hovercraft.

This allows the player to follow live where the hovercraft is going and does not disturb the spatial orientation.

The steering wheel sends with a angle encoder signals from a arduino uno. The speed lever does the same thing, but via a potentio meter.

The micro controller processes this data and sends it out serially via a HC05 bluetooth module. On the hovercraft, there is another arduino that sends the received signals to a servo motor for steering direction and two brushless DC motors that control speed and lift.

The map shows the player which location to go to score points. These points are registered when the optosensor will be covered at the specified location.

The status of the game: time, number of points & location are displayed on a ST7789 IPS screen that is directly connected to the micro controller.

The whole thing is made of silver sprayed mdf sheets that are laser cut to size. The framework was made of wooden beams. The LED bulbs are vacuumformed.
