[Peter Krin], blogging at Create Digital Music, posted an interesting news about the new Nike+ campaign in Japan. Apparently wishing to tout the bendable qualities of its new footwear, Nike enlisted sound artists to transform its product into a musical instrument. The shoes get plugged in, switched on, and mixed up, battle-style, as they sense […]
If you happen to have some spare time on the web (whenever…) and still looking for strange, useless, stupid, incredible, useful creations, then you have to give a try to the Arduino Forum. I chose to dedicate some posts per week just talking about odd Arduino Forum machineries. This one seems crazy: [Jochem] made his […]
on Instructable an Arduino spoofing of an RFID signal: RFID tags are all over the place. They’re used in building access control systems, passports, inventory tracking . . . This instructable will show how you can use an Arduino and a few simple components (wire coil, transistor, capacitor, resistor) to make a device that […]
If you have a speed problem, here’s a (difficoulty level:9) tutorial by nootropic design, about making a custom speeding alert for your car.
[Luis] created this game he built using an ATmega 328 microcontroller. His game is the first video-game system made in Honduras (as he lives there). The news was spread from several local newspapers or TV programs. “This is a monochrome game with monaural sound I created using an atmega328. The circuit has 3 MCUs (One […]
not the first, but the oldest teletype hack ever (up to now). Check out the video from NYC Resistor. NYC Resistor was invited to exhibit our old Teletype Model 15 at Eyebeam’s MIXER event last March. To make life interesting, we used a small Python program to grab tweets from Twitter matching the “eyebeam” keyword. […]
from [jeanbaptisteparis] on flickr a little project for my lab, a mouse that knows at which distance you’re from it. We would like to explore if this information could be relevant for the system e.g. to highlight the cursor when you approach your mouse or to tell background operation to interrupt in order to release […]
Closer to Sci-fi… Working in conjunction with Microsoft, a researcher at Carnegie Mellon University’s Human-Computer Interaction Institute has developing an innovative new interface that turns users bodies into a control surface. Called “Skinput”, the system consists of an armband-mounted video projector and a series of bio-acoustic sensors. Due to variations in skin, muscle and bone […]
Lilypad Arduino is the only sewable microcontroller in the 20 $ range. You need a programmer to burn your sketches on the tiny Atmega 328 on board. You can use a standalone FTDI breackout boiard or another Arduino. Check this tutorial for more info about it. There are many resources online about how to use […]
Very interesting project of a Braille Decoder. A braille reader can read up to 200 words per minute (Foulke 1991). In this tutorial I’m going to show how I implemented the electronic part for an innovative braille interface that can be connected to a computer via USB. The idea has been patented by my friend […]
