An electronic game has three square mats that are coloured red, green and blue. The player will see a colour displayed on a screen and has 1 second to hit the mat that matches the colour. If the player hits the correct mat, within 1 second, a counter is incremented. When a player hits an incorrect mat, the game ends. The game uses sensors and a microprocessor to determine if the player hits the correct mat within 1 second. Explain how the game uses sensors and a microprocessor to count the number of times a player hits a correct mat within 1 second.
