Another Day…Another Arduino!
Approaching presentation time and I am currently wired up to several LEDs, a homemade button and ofcourse, the ye olde faithful arduino board! Martina and I came up with the HUG brooch/scarf, which pulses a small light when the wearer is open to hugs! Once hugged the brooch evolves…fading out when they require another hug! Once again, a quick, fun project testing out arduino possibilities!

Happy-ometer
Arduino exercise
To create some sort of game with an input and output. Input; RFID reader and tag Output: servo motor. Here is a preview of our project in the making, started this afternoon, presentation tomorrow morning, and miraculously finished about an hour ago!!
Arduino - emotion
One of the first exercises using Arduino and processing.
We had to create an object with emotion using simple sensors and a ‘Servo’ motor. Jacek and I created ‘Boxy Bird’ in one afternoon( + a few hours of our evening). Using a sensor on the top and LEDs, the “Boxy bird” shows affection when patted!
Unfortunately, Boxy bird has since been dismantled for the next Arduino exercise!

Physical Computing begins…
Massimo Banzi, co creator of Arduino, will be at CIID for the next 2 weeks! Most exciting! First day report will follow ( if i’m not too overloaded with technical jargon)!
