Digital LCD View-Master

“Who could forget the stereoscopic goodness of a View-Master? [Tuttle] put a modern flair on the classic optical device by adding two 1.5″ LCD screens. The screens replace the film disk of the original, showing slightly different images to produce a 3D effect. No word on a camera rig used to take the original images, but for our money this a great way to make something out of those useless key chain picture frames.”

Arduino-controlled IKEA Lamp

I wanted to create a night light which had to be very simple to use and with no parts that can be consumed by babies! This is the result, an Arduino controlled IKEA lamp.  Arduino source code is available from the source.
