Description
Overview
This is the code that was used to play Half Life (the flash version) with real guns shooting into a piece of drywall.
Description
The accelerometers will take in vibration data to triangulate the location of a hit on the wall. This program uses linearized math for simplicity, and ease of use, and therefore has some inherent offset error. We used a USB-4432 and 4 accelerometers in a square pattern on the wall. The VI's are saved in LabVIEW version 8.6.The math behind all this is available at https://forums.ni.com/t5/Community-Documents/FPS-with-Real-Guns-System-Overview/ta-p/3499768
Requirements
Hardware
- USB-4432
- Accelerometers
Software
- LabVIEW 2012 or compatible
Steps to Implement or Execute Code
1.Download and set up all VI's
2.Set all configuration settings desired with your hardware
3.Run application.
