- Diavolino (make your own shield-compatible Arduino!)
- OpenHeart (animate fun patterns in the shape of a heart!)
- LoL Shield (Lots of LEDs! for your Arduino!)
- "Hi My Name Is" badge (a geeky way to share your name)

- Mignonette Game (build your own handheld game console!)
- Trippy RGB Waves (interactive blinky lights!)
- LEDcube (animated 3D cube of LEDs!)
- MiniPOV (write messages in the air!)
- BoArduino (make your own fully functional Arduino -- for solderless breadboards!)
- Atari Punk Console (Make noise!)
- Microcontroller programmer (USBtinyISP) -- (program all your AVR family chips!)
More info on this: https://www.noisebridge.net/wiki/MitchTripEU_Nov_Dec_2012 Time: about 2.5 hours (plus about 1 hour of setup and 1 hour of cleanup)
Max # participants: 30 (for each participant we need 1 soldering iron with stand and sponge, 1 small wire cutters, AC outlet, chair, table space, 60/40 (Sn/Pb) rosin core ~.8mm diameter solder)
As we don't have that number of soldering irons in our space... people need to bring their own soldering iron - or beg one from someone else...
When is it?
Dec 2nd .. we start at 14:00 and should be done arund 16:30
