This video describes how you can create an electronic escape room puzzle using a set of levers and gauges, controlled by an Arduino, Raspberry Pi, ESP32, or other microprocessor.
When the valves are opened, the gauge needles move. When every needle points to the correct section of the dial, the Arduino triggers a relay, which can release a maglock providing players with their reward.
00:00:00 - 00:02:22 Introduction and Demonstration
00:02:22 - 00:05:37 Hardware Overview
00:05:38 - 00:13:47 Component Wiring
00:13:48 - 00:33:50 Arduino Code Explanation
00:33:51 - 00:34:55 Wrapup
