The Challenger is a hearing-impaired Army Veteran that participates in national and international fencing tournaments. He faces challenges regarding the way fencing is scored: when one of the participants touches the other with a fencing sword, sometimes the movements are so fast that it is not felt by the opponent. The goal for this project is to design and build a scoring system that does not rely solely on audible tones, and instead will notify the user of a point scored in a tactile or visual way.
