E-11 Arduino Project

[kupertrooper[TK]]

While I wait for my armor I have been building my DoopyDoo's full resin blaster. I wanted to add lights/sound to it and I am somewhat familiar with programming the arduino. After drawing a ton of ideas from Skyone's post (http://www.whitearmo...er-effects-wip/) I ordered all my parts and started to get to work. I used alot of the same parts he did.

 

---------------

 

I'm not planning on doing an ammo counter at this time. I may later on though I'm not sure. The biggest challenge on this so far has been the size of the barrel on the full resin kit. A pipe build would have been wayyy easier. I'm still early on in the prototyping phase and thought I would show my progress so far.

 

Sounds:

1. Blaster

2. Stun

3. Jango Pistol

4. Boba Fett Flamethrower

5. ATST

6. Tie Fighter

 

Thanks again to Skyone for his help on this so far.

 

 

Here is my code so far:

I used the library provided by this post (http://arduino.cc/fo...?topic=117009.0)

//MAKE SURE TO USE PULL DOWN RESISTORS FOR SWITCH AND SELECTOR BUTTON
//LED'S NEED AT LEAST 9V
//PIN MAP:
//RED LED = pin 9
//BLUE LED = pin 10
//GREEN LED = pin 11
//SELECTOR BTN = pin 6
//TRIGGER = pin 7
//RESET = PIN 2
//CLOCK = PIN 3
//DATA = PIN 4
//BUSY = PIN 5
#include <Wtv020sd16p.h>
int resetPin = 2; // The pin number of the reset pin.
int clockPin = 3; // The pin number of the clock pin.
int dataPin = 4; // The pin number of the data pin.
int busyPin = 5; // The pin number of the busy pin.
const int buttonPin = 6; // the pin that the SELECTOR pushbutton is attached to
const int RedLedPin = 9;	 // the pin that the RED LED is attached to
const int BlueLedPin = 10;	 // the pin that the BLUE LED is attached to
const int GreenLedPin = 11;	 // the pin that the GREEN LED is attached to
const int triggerPin = 7; // the pin that the TRIGGER is attached to
// Variables will change:
int buttonPushCounter = 1; // counter for the number of SELECTOR button presses
int buttonState = 0;		 // current state of the SELECTOR button
int lastButtonState = 0;	 // previous state of the button
int triggerState = 0;		 // current state of the Trigger
int lastTriggerState = 0;	 // previous state of the Triger
long time = 0;		 // the last time the output pin was toggled
long debounce = 200; // the debounce time, increase if the output flickers

Wtv020sd16p wtv020sd16p(resetPin,clockPin,dataPin,busyPin);

void setup() {
//Initializes the module.
wtv020sd16p.reset();
// initialize the SELECTOR and Trigger button pins as a inputs:

pinMode(BlueLedPin, OUTPUT);
pinMode(GreenLedPin, OUTPUT);
Serial.begin(9600); //Start serial interface (for debugging)

wtv020sd16p.asyncPlayVoice(9);

}
void loop() {
// read the pushbutton input pin:
buttonState = digitalRead(buttonPin);
triggerState = digitalRead(triggerPin);
// compare the buttonState to its previous state
if (buttonState != lastButtonState && millis() - time > debounce) {
// if the state has changed, increment the counter

 // went from off to on:

 wtv020sd16p.asyncPlayVoice(8);

 {
 buttonPushCounter++;
 Serial.print("Selector Button State: ");
 Serial.println(buttonPushCounter);
 }

}
else {

link removed no longer working

[skyone]

great work! my arduino-blaster dont' feel alone anymore

 

i also wished to use all the resin kit (such as the receiver) but i ended that it would take more work to fix it than building a new one with forex

[kupertrooper[TK]]

When I was test fitting all my components I had to hollow out some of the inside of the barrel for the speaker to fit. I plan on gluing it to the end cap. It's going to be tough once all the wires are in there.

[gmrhodes13[Staff]]

Very nice work, puts my $6.00 toy gun electonics to shame LOL. Well done

[mr0072003[501st]]

Man PLEASE make a kit like this. This is all I would need to get me going again. Great work you gentelmen are true engineers. I can only wish that its marketed, as there is no way I can do this.

[Locitus[Admin]]

I am so happy to see skyones code and documentation be put to use, modified and shared again by others. This is what open source is all about. Together we improve as a whole.

[mr0072003[501st]]

kuper could you list all the resisters and such too or is that already in the chips?

 

One last thing the link to the amp is the same as the led.

Peter,

 

I updated the link in the first post for the amp. The only resistors I used were 10k ohm "pull down" resistors for the trigger and selector switch. I'm glad to read that you fixed your blaster. Isn't this place great!

kupertrooper thanks so much for the update. Yes this place is really great. Im still in shcok that I got it to work!
