The portal effect appears suddenly #12

Some times the portal effect appears from nowhere. @ivanebernal suggested that it might be caused by the vending machine's compressor. We added a surge suppressor but it didn't work . @ivanebernal thinks it is caused by an electromagnetic field caused by the vending machine that interferes with the raspberry's radio sensor.

I think we can solve this issue and the issue #13 by removing the raspberry and instead use the wii-mote (the wii control) and also connect the LEDs directly to the power.

What do you think team? @paulina-pacheco , @ivanebernal , @hkmoca , @ar-vargas , @cesardariogarcia I only mentioned the HMO team because the Chihuahua team is already using the wii-mote.

@echavezNS this is what I was talking about, we can "kill two birds with one shot" if we use the wii-mote

yep, the problem is that if you use the wii mote to control the portal, the control is always ON, so the batteries ran out of power very quickly
