ABSTRACT
Embedded systems are increasingly becoming connected through
wireless networking. These devices now form the basis of many
of today's consumer products including cell phones and video
game controllers. In the "Software for Embedded Systems" class
in the Department of Computer Science & Engineering at the
University of Washington, we used the design of a multi-player
video game as motivation for the principal concepts in wireless
embedded systems. Each student in the class designed an
accelerometer-based game controller and then, the class as a
whole, developed a multi-player video game that allowed 28
players (the number of students in the course) to play
