   1 Sensory Wall
   2
   3 Overview:
   4 create interactive wall with multiple ways of interacting with items, besides just buttons (buttons are included!)
   5
   6 wall will have lights, as well as sound. At this time, no moving parts.
   7
   8 ease of design: create features in modular sections, control with MCU without wifi/bluetooth (need to be HIPPA compliant)
   9
  10 all fixtures will have power toggle (need lights/sound to be turned off for quite time)
  11
  12 **all materials from adafruit.com (product number after name/description)

  15 Fixtures:
  16 -Traffic Light
  17         --can be used as indicator throughout the day/night.
  18         --can play Red Light/Green Light
  19                 --button for manual mode (switch red/green in Game mode, switch Red/Green/Yellow in indicator mode)
  20                 --toggle for game/indicator mode
  21                         --inside game mode, toggle for manual or automatic
  22 materials:
  23 Tower Light (2993) (red/yellow/green/buzzer led tower light) NO BUZZER CONNECTION!!
  24 NPN transistor (756) x3
  25 MCU (using Raspberry Pi Pico)
  26 toggle (3221) x3
  27 Arcade button (either 1191, 4187, etc, depending on availability/color/shape preference) x1
  28 TPS jack (36925) [to allow adaptive device to plug in to button and activate from adaptive switch]
  29
  30 -RGB LED and pots
  31         --RGB LED with potentiometer on each color line, allow individuals to play with colors of RGB
  32 materials:
  33 RGB LED (848), 10mm, 10 pack
  34 10k potentiometer (3391), 3 per RGB LED
  35 toggle (3221), 1 per RGB LED (put on ground, disconnecting ground will break circuit, turning off LED)
  36
  37 -Twinkling Lights (have 2 strands)
  38         --addressable RGB LED strands, can program animations/color change onto strip
  39         --activate with button/ultra-sonic distance sensor
  40         --any button gets TPS jack
  41 materials:
  42 MCU (Raspberry Pi Pico) (possibly 1 per strand, or may run both strands from 1)
  43 mini RGB Neon flex (4310)
  44 RGB Neon strip (3869)
  45 US-100 ultra-sonic distance sensor (4019) [1 per strand]

  47 TPS jack (36925) [to allow adaptive device to plug in to button and activate from adaptive switch]
  48 female DC power supply adapter (368)
  49 Power supply (5v, 2A) (276)
  50
  51 -Noods Web (will create 2 boxes)
  52         --create frame to stretch n00ds across, allowing individuals to access with fingers and feel/pull. Need to ensure (as best as possible) that n00ds are secured against hard pulls/aggressive grabbing, but still allow individuals to feel/manipulate with fingers
  53         --n00ds light up, let’s GLOW!
  54 Materials:
  55 MCU (Raspberry Pi Pico) x2
  56 red n00ds (5506) x2

  63             if 5v -220 ohm (2780) 1 per n00d
  64
  65 n00ds light up, not sure if want to have blink/pulse/try to have PWM breath mode
  66
  67 -LEDs on other MCU pins
  68         --have more buttons/sensors and LEDs (fancy ones even)
  69         --each LED needs resistor suited to it
