This project incorporates two ideas thought of during the brainstorming process - A TARDIS and a polygraph. Therefore, this instructable will be split into a TARDIS section and a polygraph section. The TARDIS 3-D printed using Inventor while the TARDIS was programmed using a Mac Laptop and an Arduino Uno.
To set up the circuit for the Arduino Uno, we used two galvanic skin receptors as well as an RGB LED that is normally blue but flashes red whenever skin conductance rate reaches a certain threshold (subject is possibly lying). We used Processing to send data to receive data from the Arduino and form a Graph. A sharp increase in the graph may be used to indicate a lie.
The TARDIS was modeled on inventor. The corner pieces, the walls, and the roof of the TARDIS were all modeled differently.
The TARDIS was printed on a 3D printer. On average it took an hour and 45 minutes to print each of these items.
Since the Walls and the Corner Pieces were created to interlock, merely pushing them together should lock them in place. After all the walls and corner pieces are connected, simply laying the roof on top will finish the construction process.
Very cool! This is a great mashup, and totally original. Well done!
