Range Lights are maritime navigation aids that help a vessel stay in a channel. We set up an Interactive Display that uses an Arduino to detect the movement of a ship's wheel, which lets the user control a display created in Pygame on a Raspberry Pi that simulates steering a ship to bring it in line with a set of range lights.
The museum provided an antique ship's wheel for this, and we designed, 3d printed and integrated the quadrature encoding using hall sensors. We also provided the graphics and video components for the game.
