    I would really enjoy to test some new arduino stuff. I got some projects in mind, like a midi controler or a 3d printer that would be good to have arduino stuff to do it.

    I'd be keenly interested in some low power wireless (ZigBee, 6LoWPAN, DASH7, etc) demo kit. TI has some nice stuff as do some of the other vendors. The "smart lightbulb" that Google is coming out with…

    The Oculus Rift probably has little in the way of applicability to been say an electronics tool.

    Having said that I would be interested in some of the cheap cardboard kits which emulate the functionality by holding some Freznel lens in front of a 4-7" tablet!

    I Like what you just brought up, using a micro computer and lenses to watch a monitor close up. This would be a great challenge to put forward and make happen. I would like to see what other members would propose.

     

    As for the Oculus Rift, there are lots of development possibilities, but you are right, it isn't for most.
