Today finally came, at last we got to build everything together. Today when we were going to build everything everyone were so glad and had a positive attitude, but we had some problems whit the standing that the punching bag is hanging to. The thing was that we thought that the floor was totally flat, [...]

We are also done with the sketches for [...]

Friday night we finally got our sound-sensors working. They now respond as they should, and they detect vibration in a scale from 0 to 1200 and then transfer the result to our flash application. From now on its time to finish our game-concept and to build some kind of stand for our punching-bag. The stand [...]

It has been an eventfull day, after lunch we came up with a completely new idea, and were running with it and developing the concept. OK, so the idea is: we have apunching bag, we connect sensors to it and hang it up, and it becomes a game, the sensors measure how fast/hard you punch [...]
