" summary

Shows concrete failure and fixes: a storefront machine with Arduinos, seven DC motors, three steppers, two power supplies and hidden sensors that fails capacitive touch behind security glass so the team swaps to a laser rangefinder then to a webcam with a one‑night CV hack that runs reliably for two weeks; a large Game of Thrones sword game built in Cinder with Objective‑C remote, Apache/PHP server and Bluetooth accelerometer/gyro sensors, mitigations for wireless dropouts, battery monitoring and a particle attractor to guarantee recognizable portraits.
