Problem Statement As an entry-level programming class, CprE 185 has designed labs that seek to combine real-time hardware readings with beginner level programming in “C” language for computer engineering, software engineering, and electrical engineering students. The current labs use an Arduino Esplora game pad or a Nintendo Wii remote to gather data from infrared sensors, gyroscopes, accelerometers, and button inputs and transmit the information back to a computer via USB or Bluetooth. Due to the limited mobility of the Esplora and the connectivity issues with the Wii remote, the goal of this project will be to investigate, develop, and implement a low-cost, wireless sensor package that is programmable and accessible to lab computers. The final product should include a wireless sensor package similar to what is currently being used in the lab along with a robust application that can connect devices to the computer and provide wrapper functions to manage data collection.
