Abstract

The project consists in the design, construction and programming of a device capable of electromagnetically controlling the pieces of a chess board. The device will consist of two parts, one consists of a matrix of magnetic field sensors in charged of detecting the movement made by the user playing with the board, the other part has the function of moving the pieces around the board by the means of a matrix of printed circuit board coils controlled by a microcontroller. With this device a user would be capable of playing chess, physically against a computer that would make its moves automatically on the board. It would be possible to switch the game board and program the computer to play any other board game against it.
