Cool: Video Game in a Box
Last Updated on Wednesday, 5 October 2011 08:01 Written by DarkKnightH20 Thursday, 6 October 2011 08:00
Talk about cool and geeky! This is a VIDEO GAME IN A BOX! Driven by servo motors, magnetic sensors, a piezo speaker, and a teagueduino. Plus a knob and LED of course.
Watch mario jump over goombas and other things. Here’s a link to the project Source Code and here’s the description:
It’s a video game in a box!
This is a physical side scrolling adventure. Make it though the land of evil hopping meanies, industrial debris, and warp tubes. Good luck!
Each obstacle is mounted to the scrolling background with magnetic tape. If the hero passes over one, you die and the game is over.
I’d definitely like to attempt something such as this with my Arduino-Compatible Mega 1280. Maybe ping in a box first!

Video: How to Make a Blooming Paper Flower
Last Updated on Thursday, 18 August 2011 03:01 Written by DarkKnightH20 Thursday, 18 August 2011 02:58
Want to make a paper flower that blooms in water? Follow the below video guide! You just need to use this Paper Flower Template. Download it / save it, then print it out. Or make your own! It’s simple to do. Print out the sheet, cut the flowers around the pedals, bend the pedals over the center of the flower, and put it in a bowl of water. It’ll float, then open up slowly. Note that I did NOT make this video or the template — it was from the YouTube video page. Check out the actual YouTube video for more information.

Volpin Props Take 2: The N7 Hardsuit
Last Updated on Sunday, 12 September 2010 04:51 Written by servbot_kill Tuesday, 14 September 2010 07:16
So soon after checking up on the M8 Avenger assault rifle, I decided to take a look at that Volpin Props blog again. Turns out he went all the way and built himself a set of the iconic N7 armor that Commander Shepard wears in the game, though not bulletproof and incapable of generating kinetic barriers.

Mass Effect 2 M8 Avenger Assault Rifle Prop
Last Updated on Sunday, 12 September 2010 01:40 Written by servbot_kill Sunday, 12 September 2010 09:50
Coming from a site called Volpin Props is a stunning recreation of the M8 Avenger Assault Rifle from Mass Effect 2, also featured in Mass Effect 1 but as a generic model for many kinds of assault rifles from the Hahn-Kedar lines. Built with wood pieces and some scavenged parts and free paint, the total cost? Ends up being around $28.

That’s a movie-quality result for $28, some elbow grease and dedication. I love it. See the full building process at his Volpin Props blog, here.

DIY Portable Nintendo 64: Darth64
Last Updated on Monday, 21 June 2010 06:30 Written by DarkKnightH20 Monday, 21 June 2010 06:30
A lot of hardware hackers out there like to make old gaming systems into portable ones. Usually they look extremely ghetto and just overall not worth playing. However, this one looks VERY well done. I’m tempted to make one of these myself even though I have an actual N64 hooked up in a room nearby. Anyway, check it out!

Foiling Car Thieves Who Have Your Keys

For you security nuts out there, here’s one for you: if you’re afraid someone might get your keys and steal your car, then you can make and install a simple little grounding switch inside your car that’ll keep the car from starting until you ground the car by touching the little switch.
