Project Description
Design a pocket-sized console from scratch:
- Pick an STM32 MCU, flash a “blinky” to prove the toolchain.
- Write drivers (no HAL) for GPIO, the I²C bus, and an MPU6050 IMU.
- Lay out and assemble a simple PCB with the MCU, OLED, joystick, and buttons.
- Draw pixels on the screen and code a lightweight Snake game that uses the joystick for control.
By the end, you’ll hold a fully working handheld you built, soldered, and programmed yourself.
