ReAKTAGON¶
The idea was to create a portable wireless device, to be used mainly in the sports field, with the aim of training the reactivity and agility in athletes of various sports.
It could also be used as a game for responsiveness and agility competitions between multiple competitors of any age.
This project participates in Virtually Maker Faire May 23, 2020 - https://makerfaire.com/

How It works¶
Through the APP you decide the switching sequence of the devices.
Select how many times the ignition sequence will be repeated.
You can decide whether to start introductory music before departure.
On the right side of the APP interface there are indicators that warn if a device is on or off.
The devices can be arranged as desired, depending on the type of training.
The start-up sequence starts when the START button is pressed. The person participating in the training session must run fast and cover with his hand or even with a foot, for example by simulating a kick, to turn off the device and turn on another.
At the end, after completing the sequence, you will have the measurement of the time taken to complete the whole sequence.
Technical description of the project¶
