Recently Phizone, Cynshard and I met up and did a little messing around with Arduinos. (who knew) This is some of the video that came out of that.
Phizone took the etch-a-sketch and the color selector processing code and used photo resistors (light sensors) to generate the values needed.

I am working on a few ways of taking seemingly random data (static, light) and turning it into some sort of physical representation with cool colors. While looking at ways others were doing it, i found VandalSpray. Here are some pics and video.

This is super cool. Its a band to be work over the womb to detect movement of the baby. Then it bluetooths a computer which then posts the movement to twitter. It almost makes me want to have another kid. Let me see if my wife would wear this.
It’s official; droops and I will be speaking at Notacon 6 in Cleveland, OH April 16th -19th 2009. Our talk is entitled “Interactivity with Arduinos, Transducing the Physical World”
The Arduino is an open source microcontroller development board that makes it easy for beginners in electronics to do crazy things. We are going to be continuing our Intro to Arduinos talk from Phreaknic, Anyone new to Arduino’s should watch that talk online. We will be discussing building your own devices to interact with the real world: making electronic musical instruments, wireless communication, networking Arduinos, controlling lights and sounds, sensing touch, RFID, building custom games with custom controllers, sensing temperature changes and ways of notification like phone calls, sms, hidden buzzers. We will also go into building clothes with embedded electronics.

Stop by and say, “Hi”, if you come… we would love to see ya!
