Raspberry Pi + React Native + Foosball

Raspberry Pi + React Native + Foosball

Features:

• Automatic goal detection and score keeping
• Controlled LED Strip as foosball light --> blinks on goals

Setup

• Clone this repository

    git clone https://github.com/illing2005/raspberry-foosball
  

Pusher.com

• Create an account at http://www.pusher.com

Raspberry Pi:

• Copy the raspberry-app folder to your raspberry pi

• Rename config.example.py to config.py, add your pusher.com credentials, and adjust GPIO pin nubers.

• Install dependencies:

    pip install -r requirements.txt
  

• Run python main.py

React Native:

• Rename mobile-app/App/Config/config.example.js to mobile-app/App/Config/config.js and add your pusher credentials.

• Install dependencies:

    cd mobile-app
    npm install
  

• Run App on emulator:

    react-native run-android
    npm run start
  

• See https://facebook.github.io/react-native/docs/signed-apk-android.html how to create an signed apk

Hardware:

Goal detection:

For the goal detection, you need two infrared light barriers (see sketch). The red LED is for testing purposes only and can be removed.

Needed parts:

• IR Emitter and Reciever pairs (like these http://www.pollin.de/shop/dt/NzA0OTc4OTk-/Bauelemente_Bauteile/Aktive_Bauelemente/Optoelektronik/Infrarot_Lichtschranken_Paare_TEMIC_K153P.html)
• A few Resistors

LED Strip:

Needed parts:

• An RGB LED strip with 4 pins (like this one https://www.conrad.de/de/led-streifen-komplettset-mit-stecker-12-v-500-cm-rgb-x4-life-701085-701506-1299223.html)
• 3 MOSFETs (https://www.conrad.de/de/mosfet-infineon-technologies-irlz34npbf-1-hexfet-68-w-to-220-162873.html)

Below you find a sketch how to wire thinks up. If you need more help follow this great tutorial (http://popoklopsi.github.io/RaspberryPi-LedStrip/#!/)
