This project is a fully integrated embedded mini golf game on an STM32L432KC. The game renders graphics on a 240×280 SPI LCD, reads motion input from an MPU-6050 over I2C, and uses the MCU’s RNG peripheral to randomize hole/ball placement each round. Timing is driven by SysTick interrupts to support millisecond-scale delays and smooth gameplay.
The software is organized into clear peripheral drivers and a game logic layer, with a state-machine structure documented in the repo.
Features
- Tilt-controlled gameplay using MPU-6050 motion input (pitch/roll)
- SPI LCD graphics: title screen, ball animation, hole detection, score screen
- Randomized ball/hole positions using the STM32 hardware RNG
- SysTick-based timing for precise delays and time tracking
- Multiple low-level protocols in one system: SPI, I2C, UART, SysTick
Hardware Used
- STM32L432KC (CMSIS framework)
- MPU-6050 gyroscope/accelerometer
- 1.69" 240×280 SPI LCD
- External buttons for start/reset
Software Structure
- main.c: hardware initialization + top-level flow
- game.c/h: game logic, motion handling, collision/hole detection
- lcd.c/h: LCD control + rendering pipeline (SPI)
- gyro.c/h: computes pitch/roll from MPU-6050 data
- i2c.c: low-level I2C driver for the MPU-6050
- spi.c/h: low-level SPI driver for the LCD
- rng.c/h: hardware RNG init + random placement
- systick.c/h: SysTick config + millisecond delays
Design Artifacts
- Includes a system block diagram and a state machine diagram in the README for overall architecture and control flow.
