Inspiration

We were trying to think of frustrating tasks and typing a secure knot that was secure and safe was a challenging task some of our members have experienced. Tying knots can seem simple, but tying a tight and secure knot is hard.

What it does

Shows a rope that the user can manipulate with their hands and control the menu with Voice commands

How we built it

We split into four subtasks

  • Physics/environment setup
  • UI and IO
  • Camera tracking
  • Voice Commands

Challenges we ran into

Version control, some of us didn't know how to use Github and relied on discord for version control Knot measurement kept breaking and relies on a somewhat inaccurate heuristic

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Being able to integrate it all together The knot measurement was pretty clever despite its issues

What we learned

Debugging a 3D application Managing a large project under time constraints Decision making under high uncertainty

What's next for Knot Madness

  • Better knot measurement and detection
  • Performance improvements
  • UI polish
  • Mobile support
