Initial project Design

Here is where we illustrate our inital project design from Senior Design 1

Project Apricorn is defined by the interactive experience created between the user and a Pokéball that utilizes radio frequency identification (RFID) to communicate between the user and system. Orlando is known for being the home of many themed entertainment parks and having close ties with the University of Central Florida, Project Apricorn is designed to be an extension to the interactive experience. The Pokéball will feature an integrated printed circuit board with a RFID transceiver which will relay information to the base station which will be connected to a database to determine the user's identity to access interactive software selection.

Components

• Hardware
  The hardware components consist of two major entities, the handheld Pokéball assembly and base station.
  
• Software
  Below displays the software diagram of the User Interface associated with the Pokéball.

A sincere gratitude is extended to all of the professors and mentors who have been able to guide the authors through coursework and projects. If not for learning these essential concepts, this design would not be possible. Lastly, the authors would like to thank their family, peers, and close ones who have supported them throughout their college careers.
