What better way to wake up than some rays of sun shine, this is assuming that you are trying to wake up in the morning when the sun is out. If you are a shift worker this might not work very well for you. “It is created using a Spark Core micro controller,
 This GPS Guided RC Boat project is a great way to capture some interesting pre-determined navigation scenes. The boat does a great job of navigating until it hits something or gets swamped. Joseph Fortune has a page that provides build details and code so you can make your own.  “Here is a rough layout of the parts. The 9V battery hooked to the engine was actually one of those 7V rechargeable

3D printing technology has come a long way over the past few years. The speed and strength of the prints is what has made me think twice about purchasing one. The speed and strength issues has changed with the introduction of the Carbon 3D system. Â “UV light triggers photopolymerization and oxygen inhibits it. By carefully balancing the interaction of light and oxygen, CLIP continuously grows objects from a pool
