Hammerhead, the CD thrower
Looking for a fun way to destroy all of those old CD-ROM disks that have confidential information on them. Give the Hammerhead a try! “Hammerhead the CD thrower is composed of two main parts, the head that throws disks, and the tail which feeds the head with compact disks.

Dance Dance Revolution a Mole
Dance Dance Revolution a Mole uses a MPC823 microcontroller to bring it to life. This is a nice creative version of the old carnival Whack a Mole games. “We set out with the goal of creating a Whack-A-Mole game with a twist.
