Makey Makey Coin Informer
I made a device that tells you what coins are and how much they are worth. It also tells you how much the coins are worth added together and by themselves. It could help blind people identify coins. If somebody is new to america and the currency it could help educate.

2.Then you need to print and cut out pieces of paper with a picture of the coins and name of each coin.
3.Last you have to cut out pieces of aluminum foil and glue them on top of each coin
Coding Project on Scratch
1.To make the code functioning on scratch you have to first record audio clips of the name of each coin and its value.
2. To make each input play the correct sound you must have if then statements to play each sound on each input. 3. In order to make the correct visual code you must also have messages being broadcasted for each sound to give each sprite the information on when to show and hide themselves.
4.To connect the makey makey you must connect the alligator clips to the pieces of aluminum foil and connect them to the corresponding input from scratch.
5.You also need a ground wire to finish the circuit when the inputs are given.
