Battletrains

Project type

Electronic Board Game

Date

December 2023

Location

University of Colorado Boulder

The purpose of this project was for me and my teammates to create a Battleship-type game that implemented methods learned in our circuits class. We also wanted to make something that would be just as, if not more, engaging than the original Battleship. My part of the project involved designing a printed circuit board which would control all LEDs and take inputs from keypads. After printing the PCB, I was also tasked with soldering every component of the circuit together, including 28 LED strips. Finally, I used Solidworks to CAD some game pieces to look like trains (instead of ships).
