Add a TENS unit to the Operation boardgame!
I decided to make my Operation game a little more exciting/terrifying, pick your own adjective, by having it shock me when I mess up. Gotta keep quarantine interesting, no?
The build uses:
Here’s a video of me playing and building it:
Here’s the arduino code for your review:

Also used for standard non prog when at 1 int switchState = 0; //switch read void setup() { // put your setup code here, to run once: //Serial.begin(9600); //setup the serial port so we can monitor it while testing pinMode(2, INPUT_PULLUP); // switch pinMode(10, OUTPUT); // relay pinMode(13, OUTPUT); // led } void loop() { int sensorValue = analogRead(A0); //read analog sensor(checking if there is voltage coming from the game. switchState = digitalRead(2); //read the pin that the switch is on. // Convert the analog reading (which goes from 0 - 1023) to a voltage (0 - 5V): float voltage = sensorValue * (5.0 / 1023.0); //voltage read. It is two AA batteries so 3V max //Serial.println(voltage); //debug output of serial info for testing if (switchState == LOW) { progLoop = 1; //reset this so you don't get wammied once moving the switch LOL } if (voltage > 2) { //voltage is coming from the game, so enable the led and relay digitalWrite(10, HIGH); digitalWrite(13, HIGH); delay(200 * progLoop); //how long does it sleep - how long are you shocked. AKA enable tens unit, then sleep for as long as you shoul dbe shocked. if (switchState == HIGH) { progLoop = progLoop + 1; //if the progressive switch is on, then keep incrementing it each time the game buzzes } } else { //no voltage, so turn the LED/relay off digitalWrite(10, LOW); digitalWrite(13, LOW); } } |
