Adaptive Soccer

Our project is a soccer goal that allows students to use a button to score a goal. The soccer ball moves after a certain period of time. When the button is pushed, the soccer ball will disappear and present a message of celebration. We wanted to give students who are unable to play sports the ability to play soccer with the simple touch of a button. The buttons can be changed also to fit the mobility needs of students, assuming the button uses an aux cord.

TECHNOLOGY:

1. CircuitPython
2. Matrix Portal M4
3. External Battery
4. Aux Cord Button Attachment
5. 2 HUB75 Display
6. USB-C Cord
7. 5V Power Source

MATERIALS:

1. Wood
2. Nails
3. Wood glue
4. String

The structure was used using wood and hand tied knots. Nail and glue wood together to mimic a soccer goal. Place hand tied goal net over the structure.

Laser Cut a frosted panel of acrylic to cover the HUB75 boards. Button was soldered to the Matrix Portal M4 in order to have the ability to use a button. Daisy chain two HUB75 boards and place in the structure.

Code the Matrix Portal M4 to display the images and celebration code.

Here is a demo of the project.
