Urban Sonar is a personal space monitoring system that senses an individual’s experience as they move through the urban environment and records that information for review at a later time. Turning the gaze both outward and inward, negative space surrounding the individual and their heart rate are used to visualize a lived experience through quantitative data.[more]

This is a cool project idea. When the the rain falling down the raindrop on the umbrella ย�samples play the music in a loop, each speaker playing their own unique raindrop. The LEDs light up the speaker playing at that moment. The tempo of the loop is controlled by a long-range Sharp Infrared range finder. The closer an object is to you, the faster the loop plays. If an object is close enough and a threshold is reached, a lightning sequence is triggered. [more]

Puff - The Dragon Enters is a fire fighter robot controlled by Arduino.It consists of 2 geared motors, 1 servo for head scanning, 1 motor with propellor fan, 2 light sensitive Probes.
Gareth writes :
Puff is able to Put out Fires - He Scans his Head to find the Flames - he orientates towards the Flame - and Blows it out.If he fails to blow out the Fire within 2 sweeps then the “PANIC” mode switches in and he backs away to save himself from frying his “Chips”.Puff is an Arduino based tracked autonomus Robotic Vehicle with “Cliff” and “Obstacle” detection.
