You may know Karen from The Learning Circuit. Now you can find her making projects on Element14 Presents! In this episode, Karen creates an electronic escape room puzzle. Escape rooms have been increasing in popularity in recent years. Go into a room with one hour to solve all of the puzzles, find all of the keys, open all the doors, and ESCAPE! You often have to find specific objects and solve a riddle, placing the objects in a certain spot in a certain way to solve the puzzle. Karen creates a puzzle where you have to choose the correct 3 stuffed animals and place them correctly on the stand in order to open the box. Watch to see how Karen does it and find out how her first project turns out!

    Congratulations on your first Friday Project.  I loved it.  My wife loved it and even suggested that I build it for the grandkids.  Awesome!  Also love that you used St. Vinny's for inspiration.  Thrift stores are a great place for power supplies but I'll have to pay more attention from now on.

    Fun project!  I have thought about making a board game using RFID cards or tags.  This would allow features such as requiring the objects to be placed in the correct order or location.  RFID could be used for escape room puzzles also and the microcontroller used to give hints and feedback.
