This article is about a Tetris game I created with an AtMega32 controlling the beam of an oscilloscope, which I very creatively named Scopetris.

This article is about the robot: SickSack that Aske Olsson and I created for DTU RoboCup 2007, which is an annual competition for autonomous mobile robots held by Automation at the Technical University of Denmark.

This project was inspired by the countless other projects on the web concerning hacking and modifying the C64 DTV. The basic goal I had with my DTV modding was to create a handy little C64 clone you could bring along to spread some 8-bit joy. This article includes modifications to the DTV PAL circuit to improve color reproduction.

This article documents how a capacitance measuring device was made using an Atmel atmega8 microcontroller. The readout is on a standard 16x2 characters LCD and the device can be calibrated. The EEPROM is used to save the calibration.

This is an unedited republication of the Electric Repair Stories series as featured on the first Lars' Electric Endeavors website. The post includes modifications such as my NAD display lighting LED mod
