BattLEDship: A Modern Interactive Take on the Classic Battleship Game
BattLEDship is an innovative version of the classic Battleship game, designed to engage players of all ages through interactivity and technology. This project utilizes RGB surface-mounted LEDs and phototransistor sensors connected to Arduino, enabling real-time game feedback with color-coded indicators for hits and misses. The game features a refined architecture, including PCBs and arrays of sensors and LEDs, enhancing the gameplay experience. This presentation details the methods, design, issues faced, results achieved, and a demonstration of this modern gaming concept.
