CubeSpeedee Timer

The Project

The Cubespeedee Timer is a DIY replica of a speedcubing timer. It uses two capacitive touch sensors on either side of the timer to time speedcubing solves. You place both hands on the pads, the screen turns red and after a short delay the screen turns green and you lift your hands off the pads and the timer will start. Once you have solved the cube you place your hands back on the pads and the timer will stop. When starting a new solve, you see a randomly generated list of moves to scramble the cube with. After each solve a new scramble is generated. While timing, you can see the time in minutes and seconds (-:--) and once the timer has stopped you can see the time more precisely in the format minutes, seconds, milliseconds (-:--.--).
