For an updated project description, click on the
following link for the Project
Readiness Package.
This project is the continuation of P10005, seated
balance tower. The primary focus is to update the
balance tower by incorporating a second tower.
Currently we have a tower that is built that has
seven large panels in a vertical line that are
separated by 3 tri-colored LEDs. When activated the
LEDs will be blue, if the patient touches the
target they will turn green and if they miss they
will become red. A second tower will be added to
the game to add more challenges for the
patients.The two towers will communicate through a
wireless module. Also, an update to the current
wiring and program code will introduce more
reliability and durability to the system.
