2 Abstract What is "Hackers of Catron"? o Electronic Settlers of Catan® board. Settlers of Catan is a resource gathering and trading board game in which players compete to build the largest economy. What we will improve upon? o The game is really fun, but it takes too long to set up. We will shorten the setup process. o Make resource gathering and spending automatic. o This project intends to simplify the execution of Catan without adding more complexity.

3 Packaging Constraints Large, flat playing surface o Reduce piece detection false positives. o Accommodate physical playing pieces Short distance between PCB and playing surface o Hall effect sensor max range of detection ~1.2cm Semi-transparent playing surface o RGB LEDs need to shine through to show resources o Doesn't show the PCB below Opaque dividers between resource tiles o Reduce "bleeding" of LED light between tiles Additional space under main playing surface o Provide space for Raspberry Pi o Provide additional storage space for game pieces

4 Similarly Packaged Products Pros Game pieces fit neatly inside internal tray Board surface is indented to accommodate pieces Cons Board surface is cluttered Tools not available to design such a detailed surface Dungeons & Dragons Labyrinth
