The Magic Wand
By Zhino Yousefi and Kelly Xu
This project utilizes Bluetooth technology to transmit data from a wand to the cloud, accompanied by various LED color changes and sound output via a small speaker. The wand incorporates motion sensors, and machine learning interprets gestures made with the embedded electronics. Subsequently, the signal is relayed to another Arduino in the cloud, triggering different lighting and sound modes, such as simulating thunder or creating a nighttime ambiance based on the detected hand gestures.
