 As you probably know The Pirate Bay is always hiding the location of their servers since governments can often cause a huge speed bump in their activity when they want to. The Pirate Bay Servers might soon be GPS Controlled Drones to allow the server farm to not only not be tied to a building on earth but it could be commanded to fly to a new location
Do you like gardening and electronics? If so the Horto domi might be just the thing for you to tie these two loves together. The kickstarter is almost 1/3 funded and there is 50 days left, looks like it has a good shot at getting funded! Â “Horto domi is an open hardware raised-bed garden unit with environmental control and monitoring via web-interface thanks to Arduino Ethernet. DIY sensors, such
If you have an Arduino project and need a few extra pins have a look at the way that Mark from SpikenzieLabs did it. He removed the crystal and 22pf capacitors then he added a pin header to access the pins easily. To use this configuration you then need to set the fuses so that it uses the internal oscillator. The internal oscillator is not as accurate as the
  If you hate cold days and want to have some active heating to keep you warm this Battery Powered Warming Poncho might be just the project for you. Berto uses a 12 volt battery in a bag that runs the poncho. Being from Winnipeg and knowing lots of avid snowmobilers I have actually seen lots of warming gloves and vests for riding all day in the cold but a
This is the Biped Robot Project that Mark from the Harford Hackerspace has been working on for that past 2 years. We will have to keep track of the future progress since they have a goal to have it walking in the next few months. So far they have totally succeeded in making something that looks like it belongs in a Terminator movie, if I saw this thing walking
Check out this Stage Combat Choreography Shirt project that uses a Lilypad Arduino to control it. When learning stage combat audio cues are normally, Instructables user grossmr1 decided to create a method of directly indicating the area of interest directly by using LEDs. A glove is used to interface to the microcontroller which has contacts sewed into the finger tips. “Stage combat is the art of theatrical violence. Rather than
Kevin Martin and Hyundo Reiner from Cornell University made this Automatic Grapefruit Segmenter for their ECE 4760 Designing with Microcontrollers Final Projects. Watch the video below to see it in operation, the system first rotates the half grapefruit looking for the thick material that divides the segments. This is done by reading the feedback from a flex sensor. Once the entire half grapefruit segment locations have been mapped the
