You Don't Know What Your Missing!!


Introduction
The inspiration for this project came from reading the Stanford University website and looking at one of their assigned labs. Their lab was to build a black and white TV signal generator using a microprocessor. We took this concept and expanded it to include color as well as make the design user-configurable. By modifying our source code slightly, a third-party developer could transform our project into a unit that displays virtually anything on a TV. We included our "psychedelic" version of the classic game "Snake" as a demonstration of the flexibility of our design. The game runs in the excess time between display routines, and the only real constraint on a program is that it doesn't exceed the available excess cycles. There is much more to our project than Snake, but that being said, we hope you enjoy the game!
