NES Zapper on RetroPie




element14 Presents show

Summary: Matt used to hold the high score for every light gun game at the local arcade, but he's a little out of practice since the switch to modern, flat-screen, high-definition displays. Longing for a new challenge, he decides to build a gesture-controlled variation of the classic NES Zapper that will work on modern screens through emulators such as RetroPie and MAME. It's a new take on retro hardware based around an LSM9DS1 and ATmega32u4 that not only breathes life into otherwise forgotten games, but also provides an entirely new hand-eye coordination challenge!
