Introduction: DIY Electronic Foosball Table
I’ve been stuck at home for a month now with a lot of free time and I came up with this fun little project. It’s an electronic football table that uses some cheap electronic components to detect when someone scores a goal and shows it on a scoreboard! I used Tinkercad Circuits to simulate the circuit and write the code for the Arduino. The code is pretty simple. It reads the analog pins continuously in a loop. The more light the higher the value will be. Here is a Video just in case need.
Supplies
Tinkercad [App]
Arduino Uno R3
Blue LED x2
100 ohm Resistor
10k ohm Resistor x2
Photoresistor x2
Buzzer [Piezo]
Step 1: Place Arduino Uno R3
Place Arduino Uno R3 on the Board.
Step 2: Add All the Other Components and Wire It Up.
Add the LED, Resistor, Photoresistor, and Piezo then wire it up. It will be a little tricky so watch the image carefully or watch the video.
Step 3: Put in the Code.
Go to this website and copy the code to Tinkercad.

Step 4: Simulate Circuit
Simulate the Circuit. If work then add the circuit in your foosball table.
