## Lab: **Tetris Visual Effects Studio - Advanced Gaming Animation with Music**
## **Objective**
Create an advanced Tetris musical light show with sophisticated visual patterns that simulate Tetris gameplay effects. Learn to implement falling blocks, line clears, piece rotation, and combo effects synchronized with the classic Tetris theme music.
## **Required Components**
1. **Lonely Binary UNO R3** - Main Arduino board
2. **TinkerBlock UNO R3 Shield** - Expansion shield that plugs onto the UNO R3
3. **TinkerBlock TK33** - WS2812 LED Strip Module
4. **TinkerBlock TK37** - Passive Buzzer Module
## **Theory**
### **Tetris Gameplay Effects**
- **Falling Blocks**: Visual representation of Tetris pieces falling
- **Line Clear**: Flash effect when lines are completed
- **Piece Rotation**: Spinning pattern like Tetris piece rotation
- **Combo Effects**: Multiple colors for combo sequences
- **Victory Effects**: Special celebration sequences
### **Advanced Visual Patterns**
- **Dynamic Patterns**: Patterns that change over time
- **Position Tracking**: Track visual element positions
- **Effect Sequencing**: Multiple effects in sequence
- **Pattern Transitions**: Smooth transitions between effects
### **Audio-Visual Synchronization**
- **Section-Based Effects**: Different effects for different song sections
- **Note-Triggered Patterns**: Patterns triggered by specific notes
- **Rhythm Matching**: Visual effects match musical rhythm
- **Intensity Scaling**: Visual intensity matches musical intensity
## **Wiring Instructions**
### **TK33 WS2812 LED Strip Pinout**
- **GND** → Arduino GND
- **VCC** → Arduino 5V
- **NC** → No Connection
- **Signal** → Arduino Digital Pin D5
### **TK37 Passive Buzzer Pinout**
- **GND** → Arduino GND
- **VCC** → Arduino 5V
- **NC** → No Connection
- **Signal** → Arduino Digital Pin D7

## **Code Explanation**
### **Advanced Pattern System**
```cpp
void playNoteWithAdvancedPattern(int note, int duration, int noteIndex) {
if (noteIndex < 20) {
playNoteWithFallingBlocks(note, duration, noteIndex);
} else if (noteIndex < 40) {
playNoteWithLineClear(note, duration, noteIndex);
} else if (noteIndex < 60) {
playNoteWithRotation(note, duration, noteIndex);
} else {
playNoteWithCombo(note, duration, noteIndex);
}
}
```
- **Section-Based Patterns**: Different effects for different song sections
- **Progressive Complexity**: Patterns become more complex as song progresses
- **Note Index Tracking**: Uses note position to determine pattern type
- **Dynamic Selection**: Automatically chooses appropriate effect
### **Falling Block Effect**
```cpp
void fallingBlockEffect(CRGB color) {
FastLED.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_LEDS; i++) {
if (i == fallingBlockPosition) {
leds[i] = color;
} else if (i == (fallingBlockPosition + 1) % NUM_LEDS) {
leds[i] = color;
leds[i].fadeToBlackBy(128);
}
}
fallingBlockPosition = (fallingBlockPosition + 1) % NUM_LEDS;
FastLED.show();
}
```
- **Position Tracking**: Tracks falling block position
- **Trail Effect**: Creates trailing effect with faded color
- **Circular Movement**: Wraps around LED strip
- **Real-time Animation**: Updates position each frame
### **Line Clear Effect**
```cpp
void lineClearEffect(CRGB color) {
FastLED.clear();
if (lineClearPosition < NUM_LEDS) {
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_LEDS; i++) {
if (i < lineClearPosition) {
leds[i] = COLOR_TETRIS_WHITE;
} else if (i == lineClearPosition) {
leds[i] = color;
}
}
lineClearPosition++;
} else {
// Flash effect
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_LEDS; i++) {
leds[i] = (millis() % 200 < 100) ? COLOR_TETRIS_WHITE : CRGB::Black;
}
}
FastLED.show();
}
```
- **Progressive Fill**: Gradually fills LEDs with white
- **Flash Animation**: Creates flashing effect when complete
- **Timing Control**: Uses millis() for precise timing
- **Visual Feedback**: Simulates Tetris line clearing
### **Rotation Effect**
```cpp
void rotationEffect(CRGB color) {
FastLED.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_LEDS; i++) {
int pos = (i + tetrisEffect) % NUM_LEDS;
if (i % 2 == 0) {
leds[pos] = color;
} else {
leds[pos] = color;
leds[pos].fadeToBlackBy(128);
}
}
tetrisEffect = (tetrisEffect + 1) % NUM_LEDS;
FastLED.show();
}
```
- **Spinning Pattern**: Creates rotating visual effect
- **Alternating Intensity**: Alternates between full and faded colors
- **Position Calculation**: Calculates rotated positions
- **Continuous Rotation**: Endless spinning animation
### **Combo Effect**
```cpp
void comboEffect(CRGB color) {
FastLED.clear();
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_LEDS; i++) {
switch (i % 4) {
case 0: leds[i] = color; break;
case 1: leds[i] = COLOR_TETRIS_WHITE; break;
case 2: leds[i] = COLOR_TETRIS_GOLD; break;
case 3: leds[i] = color; leds[i].fadeToBlackBy(128); break;
}
}
FastLED.show();
}
```
- **Multi-Color Pattern**: Uses multiple colors simultaneously
- **Cyclic Pattern**: Repeats every 4 LEDs
- **Color Variety**: Combines main color with white and gold
- **Visual Complexity**: Creates rich, dynamic appearance
### **Victory Effect System**
```cpp
void tetrisVictoryEffect() {
Serial.println("🎉 Tetris Victory Effect! 🎉");
for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++) {
// Rainbow wave
for (int j = 0; j < 50; j++) {
rainbowWave();
delay(50);
}
// Sparkle burst
sparkleBurst();
// Color sequence
CRGB colors[] = {COLOR_TETRIS_BLUE, COLOR_TETRIS_CYAN, COLOR_TETRIS_YELLOW,
COLOR_TETRIS_GREEN, COLOR_TETRIS_RED, COLOR_TETRIS_ORANGE,
COLOR_TETRIS_PURPLE};
for (int k = 0; k < 7; k++) {
setAllLEDs(colors[k]);
FastLED.show();
delay(200);
}
}
fadeOut();
}
```
- **Multi-Stage Celebration**: Complex victory sequence
- **Rainbow Animation**: Colorful wave effect
- **Sparkle Effects**: Random sparkle animations
- **Color Sequence**: Cycles through all Tetris colors
- **Final Fade**: Professional conclusion
### **Advanced Animation Functions**
#### **Rainbow Wave**
```cpp
void rainbowWave() {
static uint8_t hue = 0;
for (int i = 0; i < NUM_LEDS; i++) {
leds[i] = CHSV(hue + i * 16, 255, 255);
}
hue += 8;
FastLED.show();
}
```
- **HSV Color Space**: Uses HSV for smooth color transitions
- **Hue Progression**: Gradually changes hue values
- **Spatial Distribution**: Different hue for each LED
- **Continuous Animation**: Endless rainbow effect
#### **Sparkle Burst**
```cpp
void sparkleBurst() {
for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
FastLED.clear();
for (int j = 0; j < 3; j++) {
int pos = random(NUM_LEDS);
leds[pos] = COLOR_TETRIS_WHITE;
}
FastLED.show();
delay(100);
}
}
```
- **Random Positioning**: Random LED selection
- **Multiple Sparks**: Creates multiple sparkle points
- **Timing Control**: Controlled sparkle timing
- **Visual Impact**: Creates dramatic sparkle effect
### **Pattern Variables and State Management**
```cpp
int fallingBlockPosition = 0;
int lineClearPosition = 0;
int tetrisEffect = 0;
bool reverseDirection = false;
```
- **Position Tracking**: Multiple position variables for different effects
- **State Persistence**: Maintains effect states across function calls
- **Direction Control**: Supports bidirectional animations
- **Effect Coordination**: Coordinates multiple simultaneous effects
### **Key Programming Concepts**
#### **Advanced Animation Techniques**
- **Frame-Based Animation**: Updates at specific time intervals
- **Position Mathematics**: Complex position calculations
- **Color Manipulation**: Advanced color effects and transitions
- **State Management**: Complex state tracking for multiple effects
#### **Audio-Visual Synchronization**
- **Section-Based Mapping**: Different effects for different song sections
- **Note-Triggered Effects**: Effects triggered by specific musical notes
- **Rhythm Matching**: Visual effects match musical rhythm
- **Intensity Scaling**: Visual intensity matches musical intensity
#### **Memory and Performance Optimization**
- **Efficient Loops**: Optimized loop structures for smooth animation
- **Color Pre-calculation**: Pre-calculated color values
- **State Reuse**: Efficient state management across effects
- **Timing Optimization**: Precise timing control for smooth animation
## **Expected Output**
### **Serial Monitor Output**
