Illusion Kit
Illusion Kit
While building a Ferris wheel laser-cut, I got an idea: why don’t we design such kits for changing the educational process from an ordinary way into a more interactive and fun way to learn? It will help simplify the idea and illustrate it easily.
2- Describe the project idea and general features. How would it work?
2- Describe the project idea and general features. How would it work?
The Kit suppose to be attached with manual to guide whoever is building it.
Components:
(3D shapes- Motor-Pre-programmed Arduino-RGB LED-ultrasonic sensor)
Process:
first turn on the slide switch then if the LDR in presence of light the motor will spin(to rotate the disc with the 3D shapes) and if there is no light it will stop.
3- Sketch your project: You may use pen and paper or a simple sketching tool like Microsoft Paint or Photoshop

Construction Parts
Acrylic figures attached to a disc will spin, and the RGB LED will give different colors when the LDR sensor detects light to spin the motor .
Fabrications:
It will be created using fusion 360:
Figures will be designed using fusion 360 then cut it on acrylic sheet.
Disc and controlling box will be created using laser cutting machine.

6- Categorize your project’s User Features into: Minimum, Complete, and Nice-to-have features. List the required action and input components per feature.
Minimum Features: are the least amount of features that would demonstrate the coverage of all the technical modules and their complete integration
Complete Features: are the set of features that will complete your original project objective and vision
Nice-to-have Features: are the extra set of features that will make the project cooler, yet they need extra time, effort, and/or resources to finish
Minimum User Features
Spinning disc with 3D shapes "Zoetrope"
Action: spinning disc.
User Input: Slide switch-LDR sensor.
Complete User Features
Ability to change the speed and the color of the RGB LED as a sensor detecting different sensing (touch sensor)
Action: Lightening different colors using RGB LED when applying different touch with touch sensor.
-User Input: Touch sensor.
Nice-to-have User Features
mb3 module display music
Action: display music.as
Sensing: LDR sensor.
User Input: Appling different touch modes.
