My attempt at creating a magic chess board with ai controlled self moving physical pieces. Which me luck!
I'll be posting images from the project at a public facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/243326961306649
- Games modes:
- Player vs Player
- Player vs Board
- Player vs Remote Web Player
- Player vs Remote Board player
- When I lift a piece the board indicates with leds if that piece can be moved and possible locations to place it on.
- I can get help on a good move from the AI
- When it is the AIs turn, it will decide on a move and move the piece using a stepper engine controlled electromagnet under the table.
- Wood working (box, adjusting pieces)
- Mechanics (pulleys, ball bearings, timing belt)
- Electronics (electro magnet, magnetic sensors, stepper engines, micro controllers, led strips)
- 3D-printing (misc parts)
- Programming (microcontrollers, chess server)
- js-chess-engine: https://github.com/josefjadrny/js-chess-engine. For all things chess related.
- Micro controller: Arduino Nanos
- Server: Raspberry pie
- Magnetic sensor: Hall Sensors
- Electromagnet:
Things purchased, maybe not used. I'll prune the list as the project completes.
