Bicycle laser tag system
Abstract
A bicycle laser tag system is configured to provide laser tag functionality to a bicycle. The bicycle laser tag system includes a laser, attached to the bicycle and electrically coupled to a microcontroller. A light sensor is attached to the bicycle and electrically coupled to the microcontroller. A trigger is attached to the bicycle and electrically coupled to the microcontroller. A plurality of batteries is electrically coupled to the microcontroller, the laser, and the light sensor. The microcontroller is programmed with instructions for engaging the laser when the trigger is depressed. Then, disengaging the laser when the light sensor detects a second-party laser.
