Import Soul Wouldn’t it be nice if things just worked

MSN Wallchart

Last weekend i finally found a good use for the Audrino Diecimila board that i got given to participate in the beta of NCSS/NICTA Embedded Challenge

The project was inspired by the wall in thunder birds where the eyes in peoples portraits light up when they are calling

My projects turns on and off LEDs depending on which people are logged into MSN. I probably have made it work in a very roundabout way going from MSN plus scripting to Python and finally Audrino which then decides which lights to turn on and off.

When i have time i am going to redo this project, give it its own board and try to remove the python midway stage on the software side of things
