[Atlantageek] sent in a missile launcher project that he threw together. For Christmas he received a Chumby One and a ThinkGeek USB Rocket Launcher as gifts (lucky dog). Neither of these toys are “played with” in the traditional sense as much as they become centerpieces of your next hack. In that spirit, [Atlantageek] immediately wrote a widget to control the launcher via the Chumby. The side effect of driving his cat bonkers was an unexpected bonus.
Oh that’s cool.
Nice hack.
I would love to get a chumby but it’s behind a couple of other projects so it’ll be a while.
The missile launcher however… ;)
Do want.
I love how the lamp creates the silhouette of a cat on the wall!
Oh, and the controller was cool as well. ;-)
Nice cat. It looks a lot like mine. Oh cool missle launcher too.
Hack? how? He plugged in the USB toy, then wrote some really simple code.
cool! although i wish there was a version of the rocket launcher that wasmor rapid_fire
this is great fun if you use a ds with some homebrew on to control the launcher
Hi,
