Liquid Galaxy project

TOP 2 TASK: Interact with an Arduino and the Liquid Galaxy

Based on ideas from GCI students (look at this task to propose yours: https://codein.withgoogle.com/dashboard/tasks/4748614270713856/) we're bringing a series of tasks based on his proposals.

Task: Interact with an Arduino and the Liquid Galaxy In this task you need to have knowledge on how the core Liquid Galaxy system works, mainly the communication between the tablet and the servers, look for this info in our diferent info pages at liquidgalaxy.eu, and also about Arduino microcontrollers. Also you'll need a full Liquid Galaxy system, maybe the one build with VM machines we have asked for in other tasks.

You have to do those things:

  • implement the connection of 5 buttons to the GPIO
  • write Arduino code that will direct the LG to 5 different cities after pressing each button.

Task delivery: Record a 60 seconds video explaining the system, showing the board and explaining the 5 buttons connections, and how after you press a button the liquid galaxy moves there. Send the .mp4 video and the arduino code to the lgcodein@gmail.com email and post it there too.
