Timing Trainer

Timing Trainer

The Interactive Reaction & Timing Trainer is a DIY device designed to help users improve their reflexes, timing, and cognitive processing — all through engaging, game-inspired interaction. The machine uses programmable LEDs, buttons, and sound cues to create patterns of challenges that mimic the rhythm and precision required in games like Geometry Dash Lite. By practicing with this trainer, users can develop sharper habits that translate into better performance in real-world tasks and gaming alike.

This project is perfect for makers, students, educators, and gamers interested in blending electronics, coding, and human factors into a fun and educational tool.

Purpose & Applications

✔ Improve reaction time
✔ Practice pattern recognition and sequencing
✔ Teach basics of sensors, microcontrollers, and feedback systems
✔ Classroom or workshop activity in STEM programs
✔ Bridge between game mechanics and physical interaction

Games like Geometry Dash Lite rely on precise timing and predictable patterns. This machine brings that concept off-screen by creating real-world tasks that require users to track lights and respond with accurate button presses, strengthening focus and motor skills.
