Hey guys how's it going this is my first post so take it easy on me . I'm in my last year of electrical engineering technology and we need to design and construct a final project. On the list of possible topics was the idea of a bio-med game interface. It would be biomed probes detecting muscle activity to control a video game. This idea was badass, so of course I wanna get all over it. Rather than getting an open source game, rewriting the code, building a cable to connect it to the computer, and etc I found an old think geek DIY pong game.

So I want to replace the buttons with connector probes attached to circuitry. I figured I'd use a transitor so that when you flex your arm it would produce enough voltage to the base to act as a switch closing the switch on the board. I'm great with the amplificiation of volages, transitors, and such. However if anyone can any point me to where I would purchase biomed probes and any documentation you might know of it would be much appreciated. Also when I finish I'll post it up to the site with video of badass 1 on 1 pong.
