Throughout this semester, I will be turning a 15+ year old Vitamaster exercise bike into a videogame controller. In particular, I will be measuring the rotational speed of the wheel and using that data (via an Arduino Uno) to control some aspect of a videogame. If time permits, more control aspects will be added to the bike. It would be nice to do more than control forward motion, after all.

This blog will act as my research journal, a semiformal confidant through the good times and bad, tracking my progress and/or struggles, and possibly acting as a guide to others in some fashion.
