Justin Blinder sent me this cool toy. It looks like a live robotic because it has the respiratory system. Justin writes:
Snoozy the Sloth is a plush toy with a respiratory system. He sleeps while clinging onto a user, allowing them to feel both the contraction and expansion of his chest, as well exhaling of air from his mouth. The main concept behind snoozy is to create an intimate, yet passive, toy interaction that relaxes and comforts a user, through the tactile experience of steady breathing patterns.
This cool digital alarm clock submitted to me by Nick Hardeman. Nick writes:
The Morning Monster is a plush electronic alarm clock. He has all of the normal alarm functions, set time, set alarm, snooze, etc. However, what makes him a monster is his ability to shine the sun on your face when the alarm goes off by opening the blinds. The blinds are also manually controlled my moving his left arm up and down and he will never over-crank them!
Daniel Willig sent me this cool Glow Hive - an Arduino-powered toy. Daniel Willig writes :
This is an Arduino-powered toy lamp I designed for
children who are afraid of the dark. The paper hive houses LEDs that simulate live, monster-repelling pixies.
Here is an excellent idea to make an Arduino board without PCB.
This is a 100% functional version of the Arduino. We eliminate the PCB and use paper and cardboard as support and the result is.. the PAPERduino
This is the the first version of the layout design, next we will try more designs, and another materials. You just need to print the top and the bottom layout, and glue them to any kind of support you want. We hope that you start making your own boards. If you do, please share your photos with us, we would love to see them
This project suggested by Nick Hardeman.

Nove Bit is an interactive 3 x 3 matrix that allows users to record sequences of light and save them as 9 bit memories.Nove Bit addresses human to computer interaction by allowing the user to physically input the memory as 9 bits, as opposed to the traditional 8 bit computer memory. Nove Bit also touches on the notion of a personal memory by recording a users’ thoughts in time and replaying them as a pattern of lights. The visual memories are stored as 9 bits, represented by a corresponding button. Compared to 8 bits, 9 bits also allows for a visually even distribution of the memory as a square. The “Nove”, which means nine in Italian, also references the Arduino Duemilnove, one of the two micro-controllers that control the unit.
