The purpose of our Capstone project is to build an interface that allows a certain system's input and output signals (both digital and analog) to be relayed via internet, allowing remotely-located users to utilize the system which would not have had this capability otherwise. This will be achieved by routing the signals through a custom-built server. On top of relaying a signal over an engineered network, we will also replace the way the system is controlled. We will be using a Nintendo 64 as our platform and we plan on replacing the controllers with XBOX Kinects, allowing for a more interactive experience for the user(s). The signals between the XBOX Kinect and the N64, as well as the N64's audio and video signals, will be relayed via a network over the internet.
This project will explore the intricacies of the Internet, how to build a custom server, the requirements for integration between many different devices and how to build the pathway between them to engineer a new, coherent system.
