I absolutely love this video posted by Jessica Wolpert. It’s (3) eleven-year-old girls working on an Arduino project. It looks like the final project is a “mouse alert system” that blinks the eyes of the cat when the mouse gets too close. I am so happy to see kids experimenting with electronics and micro-controllers. Are you working with kids on any electronics projects? If so, please post them in the comments so we can write about it! Thanks!
After I saw this video and read words above.

I agree with Mark especially when I saw the kids jolly learning without boring.
Awesome project, philwarner turn his digital SLR camera into a 360 panoramic photo robot. The mechanical is nice designed using aluminium frame. The camera moves by using two heavy duty R/C servos : one for pan and another for tilt. All the work is done by Arduino.
Here is an example panoramic picture taken with this project.
Here is a solderless Arduino mini on a mini breadboard. Neat pin mapping and wiring works for DIY example. There are 13 digital pins , 6 analog pins, including restart, RX, TX , Gnd and Vcc. [link]
Tomasz Węgrzanowski shows you step by step how to control iTunes with Wii Nunchunk using Arduino. Also, in the article you will learn about AppleScript that is used to control the function in iTunes such as increase/decrease volume and more.
Here’s my latest project. It involves way too many technologies for the sole purpose of controlling iTunes with Wii Nunchuck. Signal flow is almost uni-directional, so let’s go from step by step from the Nunchuck to iTunes.
RTC is an importance devices that to be used in embedded system. The PCF8563 is a CMOS RTC/calendar interfacing with I2C bus. It is designed for low power consumption with programmable clock output, interrupt output and voltage-low detector. This source code wrote by Alok for Arduino. [link]
