Just a couple of projects that have caught my eye over the past few weeks with a common theme – super-sizing toys from our childhood. The first project is Jeri Ellsworth’s 52″ net-controlled Etch-A-Sketch. It was built from an HD TV and is controllable via an IRC bot.
More recently the NYC Resistor hackers have been working on an 8′ Lite Brite. It’s not net-enabled, but that’d take the fun out of it.
Any other super-sized toys i’ve missed? Wonder what’ll be next.
