Today, I got my hands on a set of Arduinos. They're these microcontrollers.
It's a 2x3" package of utter geekdom. You can program these babies to do anything. You can build a robot that detects intruders. Plays music. Flashes a light. Marries you, then steals your money in the divorce and runs off with a hippie.
Honestly, they're pretty cool for little experiments. Consider it like a robot brain. I plugged it into my computer and played around with it for a while, until I got depressed at finding out that a robot brain no bigger than my palm is apparently smarter than me.
