Machine Build
First Week
Our first intention was to make a multipurpose cnc machine to be used for plotting,cutting etc. Since the time we had was very limited we decided to skip the same. Then our plan B was executed to make an arcade game. Since we were fans of arcade game, we searched for lot of arcade games in the internet. Finally we decided to make a game as below
.
After designing of our concept, to our astonishment we found a very similar game named as 'ICE COLD BEER'.It seemed very similar to our concept

The programming part was done with arduino IDE and we had tested the saem
Next step was to design a platform for placing the the acrylic sheet ,joystick and other parts of the game
The platform was made from plywood using the shopbot. Next we decided to modify the acrylic sheet with some design. Since the game was a vintage one we searched the web for design and decided to add our own. A final image was obtained as below to be engraved in the acrylic sheet.
