Air Punches!

November 26, 2014

My accelerometer FINALLY arrived (hint: don’t pay for expedited shipping until you know when their ship cutoff time is). It does not work. I am quite cranky about that.

This gets me to thinking about that fourth possible mode (three others flowcharted in previous post, flowchart is a verb, right?). I am pretty certain I can set thresholds to get an interrupt on a sudden motion, such as the very end of a punch (even an air punch). So… the ring is going to say “KER POW”, “BIFF”, and “THWACK” when that happen.

This amuses me very much. I thought it might amuse you. I plan to make it little screens with edges, Batman style, not just words. I suppose I have time to do that artwork and put it in the code. Since my accelerometer is DOA. Hmph!
