Arduino Sundae

The kit from Oomlout.co.uk - Basis for the workshop 101 [1]

Stuff for the big pot Component list

  • Small motors
  • Wheels + Axles (some in the store room any other ideas?)
  • Propellers
  • Mosfets or transistors to drive motors (transistors will need a base resistor - John has loads of 1K suitable)
  • Leds (John has loads of hi intensity 3mm blue)
  • 1K resistors - won't get maximum intensity but not bad - don't forget the Oomlout kit has a bunch of LEDs
  • speakers (salvage?) normal or piezo.John can supply four or five
  • Bases or other materials to build things with (there is quite a lot of balsa wood and bits in the store room? A visit to the free shop?)
  • quite a few 8-way DIL dipswitch packages (from Michael Erskine's junk collection)
  • some broken MP3 players and sound-generating children's toys (from Michael Erskine's junk collection)
  • some dance-mats! (essentially big switches) (from Michael Erskine's junk collection)

Arduino Based Exhibits - A list

  • Matt L's Reprap
  • Dominic's Drawbot (with boarduino)
  • Matt's Arduino Tank
  • John's scrolling message board
  • John's wireless RGB LEDs, hooked up to temperature, humidity and light level
  • John's wireless camera trigger
  • John's ultrasonic scanner

What else? Please add in.
