| Description | using a scale to control the chrome dino game by jumping |
| Author(s) | Adrian, Paul |
Introduction
Paul's grandparents had a digital scale lying around that thy didn't need anymore. We decided to build something cool with it, but weren't sure what. After some thinking we decided to use it to control the chrome dino game that pops up, when there is no internet connection. The project turned out working and was successfully showcased at Streetlife and Groden.
