The Arduino arrived this week with lots of little bitty pieces. Lots. of. pieces. Never fear! I managed to create a completely useless binary dice game!
Ok, somehow, I still need to turn this into a completely awesome aquarium controller. Seeing as my LCD touchscreen came in, I'm going to deviate from the tutorial's recommended exercises of adding more LEDs (boring) or a tilt sensor (less boring, but not helpful) and hook up the LCD screen to output the roll of the dice. A little progress is better then no progress!
Nice!
ReplyDeleteYou should add one of these to the project's list so that you can automate frag plug production:

Thats awesome! I was at Railsconf in Baltimore the other week and some guys had built a Makerbot 3d printer.
ReplyDeleteNever even considered that frag plugs could be made from that. :)
Nice. I love the DIY CNC/3D printer stuff!
