ETColor

ETColor is a color based tag game developed by Kosmo (Marcio Ambrosio and Sophie Klecker). I had the pleasure to work with the hardware for this project, facing interesting challenges such as power and data distribution, mechanical assembly, and weight reduction.

This project toured through multiple cities in the state of São Paulo and was shown at FILE 2016 (International Festival of Electronic Language).

Amongst many contributions, just the option of changing the thickness of the PCB from 1.6mm to 0.8mm and cutting out the slots reduced the weight of each helmet by almost 1kg each. I also designed mirror-able PCBs, so that there was no more requirement for different designs. This design also allowed for connections of PCBs in series, enabling the usage of less cabling (only a 3cm jumper between adjacent PCBs).
