Fair Dice: A Tilt and Motion-Aware Cube with a Conscience

As an example of digital augmentation of a tiny object, a small cube-sized die is presented that perceives and records what face it rolls on. It is thus able to detect bias and compensate for unfair behaviour due to its physical imperfections. On a deeper level, this case study demonstrates the integration of energy-efficient sensor fusion, and a wireless interface to adaptive classification heuristics.
