A smart chess board that connects to your phone and automatically makes the moves you and your opponent make on the screen. It can even play against you! It works by moving a magnet under the board, thus also moving the pieces which will have magnets in them.
Because I had this idea in the back if my head for a long time and I thought this was the perfect time. Also, I wanted a challenge, something new.
Well, I haven't thought it through, but my idea is to also make an Android app that connects through Bluetooth with the board so you can visualise the moves there, as well as make new ones. I also hope to allow players to make their own moves on the board using the Hall sensors that are in the board.
