Programmable LED gallery

Wednesday, November 28th, 2007

Back in March I published my first instructable called Programmable LED. The idea was simple, have a device that is able to record and play back light sequences. Light sequences are recorded with an LDR, a light dependent resistor and played back with an LED.

After a while some users at Instructables began to rebuild, modify and improve the Programmable LED. Ok, that’s what Instructables is all about, to share and to distribute, but it was astonishing to me, how it worked.

This is a gallery of these derived and improved versions. Kudos to all the builders.

Webcam snapshots with Flex3

Saturday, November 3rd, 2007

This time no hardware hacks. At least no selfmade hardware.

Lately I saw websites that used Adobe flash to get access to my local webcam. I thought it would be fun to have someone take a snapshot of himself and post it on my site.

And it is a fun project to learn some Adobe flex.
