Things to do in Max

Colour Tracking : Each R/C car will have a different coloured LED attached to the top, which a camera will track. 4 jitter matrixices in max will then track each car.

Project Trails: Using the co-ordinates gathered from the colour tracking, Max/Flash or Java will draw a a trail behind the car.

Collision Detection of trails: Comparing the co-ordinates of each car with the other cars, Max will work out weather a car travels over another cars trail.

Sounds FXs: Intergrate sound with collision detection. When a car is knocked out, a fitting sound plays.


Bluetooth Arduino Board


Intergrate with cars: Connect Bluetooth Arduino boards with cars to power on and off LEDs with the cars current status in the game. The boards will also cut the power to the cars when they hit another cars trail. Each board will be powered by 2 AA batteries.

Jobs over the weekend:

Fraser = Research Colour Tracking/ Collision/ Trail
Aaron = Research Trail/ Collision Detection in Max
Abdul = Research Trail/ Collision Detection
Roberto = Research Arduino Board Connectivity/ Car + LED connections
