This interesting DIY IR Light Dimmer project allows you to make your light into a remote controlled dimmable system, best of all it uses one you your existing remote controls. Have a look at the schematic below and notice that there is no low voltage transformer for the microcontroller. The board layout, schematic and microcontroller code is available so that you can build your very own. Thanks Muris "Dimmer
This Servoelectric Guitar is an interesting concept, it is cool so see the combination of art, electronics and mechanical components. What we need next is a machine that also automatically pucks the strings as it tensions the strings. Thanks Keith. "A servoelectric guitar is a fretless guitar that is played by controlling servomotors that change the tension of the strings over an octave or more on a real-time basis.
Have you ever had a phone call and you got so distracted that you lost a few sentences of what the other person was saying? Yes it has happened to all of us, with TVs, Internet, IM, text messages… Well this Isophone will take care of that, just jump into the pool and slip on the stylish hat and dial away. I think those distractions will be a thing
Nice to see another company following the path that Tesla Motors did when making the Tesla Roadster. This new electric sport bike is a high performance electric vehicle made by Mission Motors. I am looking forward to see what other innovative vehicles come out in 2009. "It is the first production electric sportbike that features uncompromised performance and an iconic new design created by world-renowned designers Yves Béhar and
This is a cool way to remotely drive your pet crazy! Turn on the lights and fly a laser dot around the room making your pet run around from across the world (or at least from the office). That is what is possible with Laser Pup. Thanks Lynn. "So what is LaserPup? It is not a dog with a laser beam attached to his head, as cool as that
Clocks are great, it is a nice way of making an electronic project that has natural changes in state. I have seen some wooden clocks before but this Wooden Clock project is a nice DIY version with full instructions so that you can make your own. 🙂 "The anodes of the LEDs are attached to a cluster of 3 transistors. This is so the 1st transistor has the power
It seems that this ioBridge module is getting quite popular. I haven’t played with one yet but I have already seen a cool iPod Touch controlled shooting range built with it, a toaster that is connected to Twitter, machine to feed your dog a treat through the internet and many more items every month. The video above is a by Pete from WaveJam Technologies, he has used an ioBridge
