Recoil MOuse

Project

Inspiration

We wanted to be able to recreate the fire rate of guns in First person shooting games

What it does

We have 2 solenoids attached to the mouse, once activated, the solenoids will activate on the mouse, mimicking the fire rate of the gun.

How we built it

We used Arduino, Python, and microcontrollers in order to assemble our build.

Challenges we ran into

First challenge was trying to get the solenoids to mimic the fire rate, they were only able to go 1 pulse per millisecond, which was not helpful to us. SO we had to convert the gun fire rate to where the solenoid would be able to mimic it.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We got the program to work for all full-automatic guns in Valorant.

What we learned

Two out of the four people in our group were not proficient in Python. We were able to learn a lot bout Python, Arduino, and how a computer communicates with a microcontroller.

What's next for Recoil Mouse

We fine tune the mouse in order to make it more consistent and to incorporate other kinds of weapons, like semi-automatic guns. We also want the program to work in other games.
