Mike McRoberts sent me the unique concept clock using an8×8 RGB Dot Matrix Display.
The time is indicated using blocks of colour. The central 6×6 grid is split into 4 x (3×3) grids and each 3×3 block is a different colour. The number of LED’s per 3×3 grid indicate the digit. i.e. if the first 3×3 grid has 1 LED lit then the first digit is 1, the second has 7 then the 2nd digit is 7, etc. The top two grids are the hour digits and the bottom 2 the minutes. Around the edge the unused LED’s have a moving light that shows the approximate position of the seconds.
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.
This is a PC case mod project using Arduino to control the fan LEDs on the certain temperature. The LEDs can be controlled by Arduino or by manual controls via the computer software.[link]
Here is a great example project that is integrated between Arduino and Internet. The Facebook Arduino Lamp project consists of 3 LEDs indicator. It lights up bright when someone is Online, dimly lit when idle and is unlit when someone is offline. [link]
