Liquid Galaxy project

TOP X TASK: Arduino's back: Using ultrasonic sensors to Control Liquid Galaxy

Task created by student Praveen, thanks !

To learn how to interface Ultrasonic Sensor with Arduino : https://www.instructables.com/id/InterfacingUltrasonic-Sensor-With-Arduino-1/ You can use LG Controller Commands and Pyserial Library for this task.

Task is: Take 3 Ultrasonic sensor and connect it with an Arduino or any MCU, Sens1, Sens2, Sens3.

Program it in a manner so that:

  • When your hand comes infront of Sens1, It Zooms In the Google Earth Along with all the other machines Liquid Galaxy Setup Needed, either VM or physical machines.

  • When it comes infront of Sens2, It Zooms out on Google Earth.

  • On the Sens3, making it more interesting, we assign 15, 30, 45, 60 centimetre to a particular city. For example, say your put your hand approximately in (30-35) cm range of Sens3, It will redirect you to London, if (40-45), It will take you to Paris and so on.

Task delivery:

  • record a 1 minut .mp4 video (no faces, no names) with your voice explaining and showing your system running, rpi, sensors and laptop with LG VM or lg.
  • send arduino code
  • send pdf with documentation on hardware and building guide step.
