[tf2_pyro]

Hi Hacker News

I'm Mayghal, one of the engineers/designers/creators of Chess Fun For Little Ones - a new and unique Arduino based interactive book to introduce little ones to the world of chess through some colourful LED lights, characters and poems.

There's a video showcasing the book on our website: https://www.chessfunforlittleones.com/

We're planning to launch a kickstarter towards the end of the month so if you like the book, I would appreciate you signing up to be notified when the kickstarter goes live via our website :)

Thank you in advance for taking a look and let me know if you have any questions!

That looks pretty interesting! How does the book know which page you're on? Is it based on light sensors?

[tf2_pyro]

No light sensors - each page has a small magnet embedded within it at a certain place with the pcb having a Hall effect sensor at the corresponding location

I was looking for something similar as a gift, that's really cool!

Looks cool, I think my 2 year old will enjoy this!
