Here’s a fun game from [A.J.]’s lab. It’s a simulated king cobra made from an Arduino, an ultrasonic sensor, and a servo. The goal of the game is to get hold of a ball in front of the device without being ‘bitten’ by the thumbtack attached to a drinking straw controlled by a servo. You know, just like a real king cobra.
There’s no schematic or build plans for this project, but it looks easy enough to cobble together. despite its simplicity, this game looks hilariously fun, and could quite possibly supply a lot more enjoyment through using the maker rather than simply building it.
No text description of this game can do it justice, so check out the video below. It looks like a lot of fun, and if you already have the parts in a bin somewhere, it’ll make a terrific weekend build.
