8:00 am-12:30 pm, Room 2, Make Your Own Gen 2 Tech Props! Workshop
Speaker: Vinnie Ingallinera
Workshop will be a hands-on experience where attendees will create their own tech prop! This workshop is intended to provide a hands-on approach to creating basic sensor-based props for Escape Room — and designed for anyone with a basic interest in technology. In the end, participants will walk away with a completed arduino based tech prop they can use in their own game.
Upon completion of the workshop, participants will be:
- Familiar with the Arduino Development Environment software
- Understand Arduino programming code structure
- Able to read sensors with both analog and digital values
- Create a custom output based on readings from the sensors
- Be familiar with basic input and output circuits
- Have their own tech prop
Pre-requisites:
