In this video, Mark builds a reaction-based catch game inspired by a classic TV challenge, using an Arduino Nano, relay-driven actuators, and a simple but effective control system. The setup drops sticks at random intervals, testing reflexes while showcasing practical electronics design, from power regulation and PCB assembly to embedded programming and mechanical integration. This project balances accessibility with clever implementation, making it ideal for makers looking to build something interactive and fun, you can find the supporting code on the element14 community: bit.ly/4dBqWRE
