From Wednesday’s Discussion

Here are a few items related to Wednesday’s discussion:

MaKey MaKey cold cut drums

The MaKey MaKey is essentially an Arduino, an open source prototyping platform. Lots and lots of Arduino projects can be found here. Here’s the project that begat the one you see below.

Your Prof.’s first Arduino project. Circuits on a breadboard attached to an Arduino. This is a modification of the most basic Arduino project.
A DrawBot made with an Arduino. You can see it at the top center of the board.
A kit-built RepRap 3D printer, that works just like the Makerbot we saw in class. All the purple parts were printed on a similar machine. The whole idea behind the RepRap project is to create 3D printers that print 3D printers.
