That's so funny...i happened upon this video from google and it just so happens that my lab partner from last quarter comments on it. Astoundingly small world when it comes to EE! Nice project BTW...looks pretty fun!
When we took it a few years ago, we needed to buy our own GAL chips and other ICs. The monstrosity was made from 1 led array 2 or 3 GAL chips and a crappy load of parallel shift registers to reduce cost. Thus resulting in a huge circuit. It was quite fun though.
How was your project? Is the. Class still taught by Dr peckol?
Ah, I was kind of wondering if that was what was going on with your project. I knew that they had made some changes to that class, but I wasn't sure what all they had changed. My project turned out quite well, it wasn't perfect, but I got it done, which was more than a lot of people could say! Peckol is still around, he helped me on a few things, but my specific class section was taught by Prof. Hassul. I know a few people this quarter who are taking EE271 with Peckol.
Wow, that is pretty crazy. Was that really EE271? I just took EE271 spring '09 at UW and our final project was completely code based. We had to create a reaction timing game that would keep track of time/avg time/wins. But it was a big coding project, we did the entire thing in Verilog and then downloaded it to the cyclone FPGA boards that we were each given at the beginning of the quarter.
that is cool man! I am doing EE 280 (University of Alberta equivalent of the Fundamentals of Digital Logic) and it is my favorite course. That is a scary circuit you've got there. Debugging must be insane!
Most EPIC breadboard ever!
Seriously, that is an awesome looking circuit.

can't believe this vid is still getting comments after more than 4 years. LOL

holy shit you guys used so many wires for your game

Haha, dude, that is pretty funny. Totally out of the blue like that. Too bad we don't have any classes together this quarter.

Debugging wasnt really that bad
the building part sucked though
since the project was huge
anyways
show me your final project when you're done
i'd love to see it :D
