Simple AVR game console
This project intended to be simple and fully featured game system. It uses 3 AVR microcontrollers that are responsible for different tasks like generating composite video signal, IR receiver decoder, and sound effects.
Game generates simple monochrome image on TV screen and plays monophonic sound. It is also featured with dual axis Memsic 2125 accelerometer that acts as additional control for joystick. Project seems to be still under intense polishing and more info will be published soon. It actually looks very promising game system so keep track of it.



[...] Luis Cruz of Honduras built this Embedded Entertainment System using a total of four microcontrollers. This might sound a little excessive, however, they are divided up into reasonable functions. One generates video, another sound, and the final two handle infrared communication between the remote and game system. Project details aren’t available yet, however he promises to have the source code and schematics up shortly. [via embedds] [...]
