  • Connect 4 – Week 5 (19.09 – 25.09)

    Algorithm:During our research about the algorithms, we found a few good sources. This week we started to have a more detailed look at the algorithms from the sources and started to try to understand them. But more time is necessary to fully know and implement these algorithms. One of the most important algorithm we have […]

  • Connect 4 – Week 4 (12.09 – 18.09)

    In week 4 we wired electrical connections for the prototype with the photoresistors and blue LEDs for the detection of the coins.We tested which values we have with and without the LED and came to the decision that we will create the gameboard with LEDs to detect the coins.The prototype worked well and we can […]

  • Connect 4 – Week 3 (05.09 – 11.09)

    This week, Zoran showed us how we can lasercut things out. We than started to make a prototype of the gameboard, that means only two rows with all colums. And also cutting out 14 coins. Later, we have to paint or mark them in the player color and robot color. We glued the separator parts […]

  • Connect 4 – Week 2 (29.08 – 04.09)

    This week we started with some 3D modelling of the playboard itself and also the mechanism that will place the coins where the computer tells it to do. The board has 7 columns and 6 rows just like the original game. It also has 2 feet to stand on, these have been dimensioned so that […]

  • Connect 4 – Week 1 (22.08 – 28.08)

    In class we got an introduction into the Smart Systems course and got presented some of the projects that got created the last years. After that, we created created groups for our projects, our group consists of Fabian Wirth Jasper Voesten Johannes Fuchs Rick Verhoeven We started thinking about different projects that we may could […]
