Making the Working Model
It was decided at an early stage that the best working model representation would have two guns that would be able to represent all inputs and outputs.

The input was to be inferred light transmitter or RF sensor and transmiter.


Below is one inferred light sensor that built. I did this as at first i was not going to us Arduino and had drawn up a circuit that would opereate with no wires connecting from one gun to the other. This sensor was different to normal RF sensors as it would operrate a relay making my wireless circuit beable to operate a series of relays, switches  and output. This sensor was extremely accurate which is perfect for our models. Unfortunately at one point I had mixed up the positive and negative and blown a component of the receiver.  This forced me to have secounf thoughts about using Arduino and because it would be simpiler to build.


Below is a few cicuit diagram that would operate wirelessly using relays, three pin Switch, Rf reciever a unique mechanical switch.

The outputs where
                                               -Motor (vibrator)
                                               - Leds
                                               - Buzzer
                                               - RF tranmiter operating from a remote controll


 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Kui’s Form Model Resolution
Every body in the group agreed this was the most appropiate form and confotable shape. So Kui went ahead and did a solid works drawing ready to 3D Print.
