The new year is just around the corner, how would you like some cool swag from Hacked Gadgets to kick it off? There will be 4 winners this time around. We will be giving away a cool binary watch to a lucky winner, two subscriptions to Nuts and Volts will be going to two more winners, and finally an Arduino Pro Mini will be given to the 4th winner.
In this project by Ben Harben an Arduino monitors some motion sensors which will activate as people walk by some trees on the sidewalk. The Arduino plays a tune using the Wave Shield and lights the appropriate tree using a power switch tail. It looks and works great, hopefully there aren’t any mischievous kids in the area who want some free electronic parts!
If you have a Christmas costume party to go to this Steam Punk Arm by William Jakespeare might be a fun costume to build. Some silver and black paint makes some plumbing parts instantly look very steam punk. You don’t need a ton of parts of tools to make it.
