My take on the arduino based PC ambient lighting project posted here: siliconrepublic.blogspot.com/2011/02/arduino-based-pc-amb...
I used the same embedded arduino code and wiring setup to get it working, but main difference is that I used Python code instead of Processing for the desktop client, and I used an arduino proto shield to make a compact package that I could hide on my desk. I'm still tweaking the code so that it can work with fullscreen applications like games and average all 3 monitors instead of the center, but as it is now it works really well.

When we created Arduino’s visual identity in 2010, we pioneered brand communication in DIY electronics. Since then, we have helped Arduino define its presence amid growth and change, and recently took care of refreshing the brand and designing a coherent look and feel for its sister brand, Genuino.
There is a nice post on Arduino’s blog about our work.

USB Power supply takes the 8.75vac input, and with a bridge rectifier, 3 capacitors, and a 7805 regulator, turns it into a nice 5v regulated supply carried by a mashed up USB cable to the Arduino.
Piezo electric to keystrokes for triggering Ableton Live clips. Proof of concept has been done, this is a work in progress. Parts from Sparkfun (except wood case).
We taught a workshop on how to create interactive art with the Arduino platform at the Mill Valley Library on October 24, 2015.
We showed 9 students how to make lights blink, sounds play, motors move, and how to add more color with neopixel LEDs, as described in this online guide we created for the workshop:
At the end of the workshop, we asked participants if they would like to this again, and the answer was a resounding yes! Participants told us they learned a lot from this workshop and would not only come back for future workshops, but also recommend this program to their friends.
Instructors for this workshop were Donald Day and Fabrice Florin, with support from Natalie and Jean Bolte. We are all members of Pataphysical Studios, the art collective behind the ‘Pataphysical Slot Machine’, our poetic oracle.
Come visit the exhibit this month! We’re open every Saturday and Sunday in October, from 1 to 5pm, in the downstairs conference room of the Mill Valley Library.
Special thanks to the Mill Valley Library and the Friends of the Library for making these workshops possible — especially Kristen Clarke, who helped us get the Arduino parts and set up for the workshop.

We've created an easy to assemble Breadboard Based Arduino Compatible (BBAC) Micro-controller product,

Monitoring cooling milk during yogurt making with Arduino Uno R3 and thermocouple. Phase 1 of yogurt making is heating the milk to 190-200 F, phase 2 is letting it cool to about 120 F, phase 3 is adding yogurt from a previous batch, phase 4 is letting it culture. This photo is phase 2, letting the milk cool. The sensor and electronics will tell me when the milk is close to 120 F, so I can be ready to add the yogurt (cooling can take over 30 minutes). More information on this project on my blog, Mental Masala.
This is a close-up shot of the circuit layout.
This project uses an Arduino to drive a miniature "segway" balancing robot.
A pair of Lego Mindstorm NXT motors are used to drive the robot wheels. An Arduino is used to control the motors. An ADXL335 3-axis accelerometer is used to determine robot orientation. An L293D H-Bridge is used to allow the Arduino to interface with the Lego NXT motors using pulse-width modulation signals. A proportional-integral-derivative (PID) algorithm was used to determine the logic for wheel movement. Programmed in C++.
Unfortunately, the robot required "human assistance" to stand up on its own for any length of time. I wish I had a bit more time on this project to continue tweaking the PID algorithm to improve this.
Leopard (OS X 10.5) isn't supporting programming the Arduino BT over Bluetooth so I've been using the Mac Mini run through remote desktop to program it. I find it odd running programs graphicly on another computer.
USB Power supply takes the 8.75vac input, and with a bridge rectifier, 3 capacitors, and a 7805 regulator, turns it into a nice 5v regulated supply carried by a mashed up USB cable to the Arduino.
The hardware is not particularly complicated: the Arduino is connected to the switches via two daisy-chained 74HC165's, the 8 Data LEDs are controlled via a 74HC595. The four Control LEDs are connected to Arduino pins. In addition I added a DS1307 RTC so that the Kenbak-uino might serve a useful purpose -- as a clock!
I'm using Dale Wheat's excellent Breadboard Arduino.
Arduino based 4 bar MIDI sequencer. Plays 4 chords to any MIDI device. Chords can be changed on the fly. Works well with Ableton Lives arpeggiator.
This is a binary clock that was built into a 3d-printed case created in Minecraft. It shows the current time in a binary coded decimal format.
The model was exported with the free tool Mineways and printed on a Zprinter 650 3d-printer, with a block size of 125mm^3 (so every block has an edge length of 5mm). After printing, LEDs were glued into the case after filing the openings a bit wider. Then, the LEDs were soldered to form a 4x4 LED matrix, and the matrix was connected to an Arduino board.
A technical description of the setup as well as downloads of the model and the code can be found here: postapocalypticresearchinstitute.wordpress.com/2012/07/18...
This is a simple persistence of vision hack using the Arduino platform. It took about 20 minutes to put this together and write the code, though I only bothered with a three letter font so far.
A simple heartbeat sensor for arduino. Communicates each beat to the computer via serial over USB. A little script in Processing sends OSC messages to SuperCollider which makes a sound. Processing also displays a graph of beats per minute readings from the Arduino.
This version sends serial messages over the USB connection, a later version sends OSC messages over ethernet (even cooler!) (http://www.flickr.com/photos/chuck_notorious/4041494889/).
Next step: use the Arduino Ethernet shield to send OSC messages directly.
Next Next Step: Use this as part of a cool multimedia performance!
