Microcontroller

First, there was the infamous PoolnudelschlagapparatPool Noodle Hitting Aparatus (PNHA). At Fusion Festival 2023, we had some pool noodles, some windshield wiper motors, and a wood construct to put a simple game into, so we did the only sensible thing to combine those things: You play Flappy Bird, and if you are too bad, you get hit with a pool noodle.

Afterwards, somebody mentioned that this would be great as an item in Mario Kart. As I knew there is an open-source clone of that - SuperTuxKart, an idea was born.

My Ticket to Moyn Festival 2023, a nice one-week-project involving building something nice out of scrap material as well as implementing the software using a Microcontroller and a Raspberry Pi:

After finally (and only for now) accepting that a reliable sound2light-bassline-detection is probably more trouble than it’s worth, I next needed a way for tap2bpm instead. This, however, required new Hardware, and thus, I developed this Button-Board.
