Hack the Nabaztag using Arduino

Hack the Nabaztag using Arduino

This is a Nabaztag – Armenian, apparently, for “hare”. It’s an adorable bunny rabbit packed with sensors and communication devices…. and it’s completely unusable.

Blind Maze Navigation using 2 DOF Haptic Joystick

Blind Maze Navigation using 2-DOF Haptic Joystick

The domain of haptics has immense potential as a technology to assist visually-impaired individuals with their navigation of the physical world. In this project, we sought to develop a 2-DOF haptic joystick to provide force-feedback to a user as she attempts to navigate a maze – with no visual feedback whatsoever. The proof of concept

ZAPpelin, or how to train your blimp with an Arduino and IR remote

Is it flying seal? A flapping alien? No it’s a ZAPpelin, an Arduino controlled indoor blimp, setup to learn in the signals from an IR remote to command it. This project came to life at the third Arduino Jam Februari 15th to17th 2013, at Timelab, Ghent, Belgium. Our team consisted of: –charles32 –mgossye –myself (masynmachien)

Arduino Hats with Emotions

Emotidora: Hats with Emotions using Arduino

This project, Emotidora, will help a user express his/her emotions about events in day-to-day life. Weve all been in situations where something very exciting or unfortunate has happened to us and we want to share it with other people. This usually involves the expression of some emotion through visual cues, and when prompted by a
