![]() ![]() I am willing to buy an Arduino if need be, or maybe none of those if there is something that makes more sense for this. I’m trying to keep this cost effective and I have two raspberry pi’s just sitting around one is a RPI-1 and one is RPI2-B. I would love to attempt this as a DIY and I have all Summer to do this until the end of August, but I have no idea where to start or what to buy. So if you are on pick #90 there will be a light roughly placed in the middle of the board that lights up. When next is hit again same thing happens but the column light at the top moves one spot and the light in the squares move one spot (all dependent on the snake draft rules) when you hit next, the timer resets to 1min 30sec, the column light at the top changes to the person picking and then lastly the “Square” where the pick is currently active would light up. I would like to drill a hole for each of the squares on the board (180 squares) and place independently controlled lights behind each hole. Third - Also wired with the timer and the column lights Then on the snake picks the light only blinks but stays put and resets the timer until it is hit again then works the top column of lights backwards back to #1 Example: if i am on pick #1 and hit next, the timer restarts, and the light above the column changes from column 1 to column 2. When next is hit I would like to have a light at the top of each column that is programmed to understand the snake draft. If a player chooses their pick quickly and we do not need timer to go the full 1min 30sec then we can hit NEXT (or similar function) on the remote and it would restart the timer and move to the next “square” (squares defined below) Ability to pause, start, reset the timer with remote…always back to 1min 30 sec for reset. If the timer hits zero I would like it to play a sound file (anything i choose for the sound) LED countdown timer that is on a remote control that can be programmed to reset back to 1min 30sec for each pick Same thing for player 1 in the second round with the 24th pick and then 25th pick, and so on each round. So round 1 player 12 selects the 12th pick, then they select again for the 13th pick which is the start of round 2. This is called a Snake Draft if you picked last in the first round you pick first in the second round. If you look at the image above, there are rotating arrows shifting left or right for each round. ![]() There will be 12 columns and 15 rows (the 12 columns are the people drafting players, the 15 rows are the rounds in the draft Example Draft Board: … _board.png this example only has nine rows, but you get the idea) The board will be around 7ft wide x 8ft tall, made of shed steel ![]() I am dreaming up a gigantic sized draft board for the upcoming 2016 season and have a few crazy ideas, but no clue on how to start the implementation process of all the ideas i have to put into this board and still keeping the cost as low as possible. ![]()
