New Project

sasquatch84

2 Sep 2017

Well, although there is a small bug to figure out with my last project, I'm going to go ahead and chalk that one up as a win. 

Now I have some momentum, I just want to keep going as that project took forever to get started on! 

I don't have a specific project in mind.  I just want to keep learning and pushing my limits. 

I have always been a bit of a hoarder and so I thought I would post a list of old electronics on here and see if anyone can suggest a project that would incorporate some or all of what I have.

First, a list of new tech that I have:

Arduino Uno & Nano,

Raspberry Pi B 3,

Ultrasonic distance sensor X 2,

accelerometer,

colour sensor,

light sensors,

assorted other sensors

 

Now a list of old stuff:

Old sansui record player/stereo system with speakers (don't worry, not worth a whole lot of money),

my wife's old *** pump,

an older digital picture frame.

 

Any project ideas? Hacks?  Anyone?  Anyone?  Bueller?

    Perhaps take a look at some of the AVR projects here:

    for some inspiration ?

    Sounds easy enough.  Maybe I should ask my wife.  It seems like everything bugs her right now, especially being 7 months pregnant.  Of course she might just ask me if I could build her a new husband.:(

    Hi Clinton,

    If you can incorporate all of them in one project we will have quite a project. I usually watch for little things that bother me. For example a while back I found myself walking out to the curb a couple times and checking the garbage can to see if the pickup had come yet. Now my garbage can has a tilt sensor and an flashing light to let me know that it has been emptied. You are likely to have different little irritations from me. Just watch for opportunities and use your electronics to build a solution.

    John
