SparkFun’s LED coffee table

Posted by Jim as Security

If this table sells this Christmas I bet you there would be so many who’d line-up for it (maybe not like how the iPhone sells). It’s the classic Pong Game for 4 players and all in LED. This design by SparkFun Electronics. Took them a full 2 revolutions around the sun to make this first one. Uses 64 RGB serial matrices, 4 Atari controllers, and an LPC2106 dev board to create a cooperative game of Pong.

You see the wires under the table, well I think that will fit a square inch micro-chip when this hits the assembly lines. Definitely worth watching as you know even with all the ultra-graphically enhanced games are still no match for the Arcade Game Pong. You can play it all night long and STILL be excited and all the following day.
