In the above video, he gives a presentation on different types of flexible, foldable displays using the motion tracking of the Wiimote and IR LEDs (and projection) to simulate the displays. On his page is […]
Using a combination of the Arduino controller, wood and cardboard cutouts, as well as Processing code, the “Biophionitos” project attempts to generate artificial life through the use of zoetropes that spin in an offsetting motion in order to give the drawings “biological” movements. Download the shapes, print them out, assemble them along with the video […]
Shooting time-lapse photos would seem a simple task for today’s modern imaging equipment – but in most circumstances a pricey ‘intervalometer’ device is necessary. Have no fear, Arduino user LordYo is on the case. I’ve built an intervalometer for Canon SLR cameras (e.g. EOS 300-400, DigitalRebel) based on Arduino. I call it the Intervaluino. If […]
