Infineon Technologies PSOC™ 6 MCU + Wi-Fi/BLUETOOTH® Game Demo
Infineon Technologies PSOC™ 6 MCU + Wi-Fi/BLUETOOTH® Game Demo is an innovative, fun, and interactive demo game sponsored by Mouser Electronics that showcases two of Infineon's IoT technologies: the PSOC™ 6 Microcontroller and one of Infineon's WICED® Wi-Fi/BLUETOOTH® combo chipset radios. The game consists of participants racing to fill two water tanks. Gamers send messages from the Mouser-sponsored remote controller to the main controller via cloud connectivity or BLE – both enabled by the onboard Infineon radio.

REMOTE CONTROLLER FEATURES
• Features the ultra-low-power PSOC 6 MCU with a dual-core architecture, incorporating Arm® Cortex®-M4 and Cortex-M0+ cores onto a single-chip
• The PSOC 6 MCU is the host MCU for a certified Murata module (Murata 1DX: LBEE5KL1DX-883) which houses the Infineon CYW4343W Wi-Fi/BLUETOOTH chipset radio enabling the controller with industry-leading 802.11b/g/n Wi-Fi and Dual-Mode BLUETOOTH 4.1
• The on-board PSOC 6 MCU also delivers the excellent capacitive-sensing technology CapSense®, with CapSense sliders on board so participants can swipe to fill the water tanks in the demo
• Also featured is KitProg2, a PSOC 5LP MCU-based program/debugging interface for the target PSOC 6 MCU

Main Controller Features
• A PSOC 6 WiFi-BT Pioneer Kit (CY8CKIT-062-WIFI-BT) is used in the main controller to control and measure two water tanks that participants are racing to fill with their remote controllers as described above
• The water level in each tank is monitored using CapSense® liquid level sensing technology
• The PSOC 6 WiFi-BT Pioneer Kit features the PSOC 6 serving as a host MCU for the Murata 1DX certified module, which will receive game messages via BLE or Wi-Fi from the remote controllers also featuring the same products
• A custom shield interfaces the PSOC 6 WiFi-BT Pioneer Kit to liquid-level sensors, pumps, and in addition LED strips and a speaker to provide visual and audio feedback to the participants
