Hardware

Current devices, wiring references, prototype designs and future arena hardware.

Arena hardware kit

Current prototypes and future devices — concept images with dated engineering status.

LaserWand

hardware in progress

Current BMI270 / TTP223 wand, UWB tag and stored LED/laser hardware profiles.

UWB Anchor

hardware in progress

ESP32-C6 + DWM3001C SS-TWR responders; TDoA is a future redesign.

Camera node

deferred / gated

Ceiling IR + 850 nm illuminator — optical v2.

Smart obstacle

hardware in progress

One LED roll, MONO/QUAD local audio and own PSU; separate LED floor.

Gateway

implemented

Match server — positions, spells, lighting & audio bridges.

Charger bank

planned

~20-slot USB/smart charger at the ops desk.

Lighting

planned

Obstacle LEDs and independently powered floor; DMX is a future option.

Spatial audio

planned

Two-PA prototype path plus local MONO/QUAD speakers; eight-PA venue plan.

Smart props

planned

Chests, tomes, fog screens — later immersion phase.

Hardware BOM — current devices and review scope

Checked 2026-11-14. A physical inventory, a review BOM and a venue budget are different records. Preserve their dates and status.

Device	Current basis	Authority / limit
DE54 / DF18 wand	Prokyber C6-Bug + DWM3001C + BMI270 + TTP223; WS2811 or KY-016, laser on DF18	Physical profiles; no current haptic driver
October wand carrier	BMI270/TTP223 module or bare-IC alternatives; DIO6605B, tip WS2811/KY-008, LA143088A ERM and protected power	Review BOM and project handoffs; different GPIO, not a fitted DE54/DF18 parts list
Fixed anchors	ESP32-C6 + DWM3001C, current SS-TWR responder, Wi-Fi management	Anchor reference; PoE splitter supplies power, not data or clock sync
Smart obstacle	MONO/QUAD design, one 5m WS2815 strip + local audio, its own 12V/10A supply	Obstacle reference; latest board/QUAD implementation requires verification
LED floor	ESP32-C6, 4×150 WS2815, independent 12V/21A PSU	Floor reference; planner + frame renderer + dedicated firmware; physical commissioning pending. Separate 5V / 4×50 BTF sample still needs matching firmware/map
Haptic candidate	Pimoroni PIM452: DRV2605L + LRA, I²C 0x5A	Prototype assessment; not added to production BOM

Purchasing history is not current stock. October wand reports preserve the original two-wand CSV, later cart differences and unavailable exact parts. The owner's existing Drátek 7500 holder remains the primary review choice; LA123057 holders were approved spares. Do not add the alternatives twice. The July room/fleet costs were planning figures, not an as-built procurement list.

Use project-level BOMs for fitted quantities/passives/connectors and their qualification notes. Use the venue plan and shared business model for budget scenarios; hardware changes need a fresh scoped costing rather than a repeated historical price.

Sourcing — identify the revision before ordering

Checked 2026-11-11. Linked suppliers identify parts; price, stock and cart state require a fresh check at purchase. Historical July/October quotes are not current availability.

Physical wand prototypes

Prokyber ESP32-C6-Bug and DWM3001C are already-owned modules. Current prototypes use LaskaKit BMI270 LA131195 and 3V3 TTP223. DE54 uses WS2811 LA145014; DF18 uses KY-016 RGB and KY-008 SIGNAL19 with separate power. Order for the fitted variant. Current profiles.

Separate review carrier

Review BOM / purchasing handoffs specify DIO6605B LA122046, LA143088A ERM, level shift, default-off switching and passives. Module-prototype and compact bare-IC designs are alternatives, not two additional parts sets per wand. Preserve exact footprint/pin substitutions and verification notes.

Haptic evaluation module

Pimoroni PIM452 at Kamami combines DRV2605L + LRA. Candidate for a grip prototype, not a replacement already approved/fitted in the BOM. Verify supply peaks, feel and IMU impact. Assessment.

Obstacle and floor are separate

Use the latest MONO/QUAD obstacle BOM: one 5m WS2815 strip, local audio and its own 12V/10A supply. The floor has separate control/power; do not buy it as a load on the obstacle supply. Older WLED/DWM/MPU6050/350W-per-block lists are historical concepts. Obstacle · Floor.

Anchors and infrastructure

Match ESP/DWM hardware to the verified anchor kit. USB-C can be powered by an active PoE splitter; this does not provide Ethernet data. Fleet/network quantities are venue plans, not measurements of installed capacity. Anchor reference · Network.

Arena options

PA/exciters, amplifiers, lighting/DMX, haze and optional passive optical cameras each have separate integration and budget scope. Current prototypes are camera-free. Venue plan · Camera concept · Business assumptions.

Supplier starting points: LaskaKit, Drátek, GME; network i4wifi; Pi/cameras RPishop; audio Muziker / Kytary. Exact part, footprint and project quantity take precedence over a generic shop suggestion.
