Gamified boxing with Pi Fighter @Raspberry_Pi #PiDay #RaspberryPi

via RaspberryPi.org

“Pi Fighter is essentially a real-world old-school fighting video game,” [Richard Kirby] tells us. “The player chooses an opponent and challenges them to a sparring match. Each player has a certain number of health points that decrement each time the other player lands an attack. Instead of clicking a joystick or mouse button, the player hits a heavy bag. The strength of the hit is measured by an accelerometer. [A Raspberry] Pi translates the acceleration of the heavy bag (measured in G) into the number of health points to decrement from the opponent. [Raspberry] Pi runs your opponent, which attacks you — you don’t actually get hit, but your health points decrement each time they attack.”
