Indecisiveness Before Christmas

DeltaPi
DeltaPi over 2 years ago

Have you ever had more than one project to work on and didn't know which one do to?

I do, as this happens to me a lot! This year I have three projects That I could try for the Hack-The-Holidays competition, but I don't know which one to go with, as I only have till January 11th. Grimacing So, I will leave it up to you guys. Please let me know which one you like the most and why, and any constructive criticism you have for me. Thanks, and merry Christmas!

Descriptions of the projects:

 

  • For Most Original I would make a "Naughty or Nice" sign that lights up one with LEDs depending on the emotion the Jetson Nano sees using AI. 
  • For Most Festive I would make a Christmas light controller for Christmas lights you never have to take down, as they change color depending on the season.
  • For Most Artistic I would make a custom Christmas Countdown clock, that would get the date and time via Wi-Fi and display the day, also maybe telling a fun fact about the day.

    All great ideas. I like the countdown clock idea - it is like the 12 days of Christmas....

    The AI "Naughty or Nice" sign sounds like fun, and perhaps could be adapted into some sort of "Trick or Treat" for Halloween. The Christmas Light controller could be expanded into a more generic room…

    Naughty or nice could be really fun, gotta include corrective actions......:-) example: you've been nice, have a cookie, you've been naughty, do 10 pushups.
