NC Maker Faire 2012: Hackaweek Display [Dino] has been featured here at [HAD] on many occasions, so I was excited to see some of his inventions in person and meet the man himself. [Dino] didn’t disappoint, bringing a display that included a working demonstration of his upcoming cover story for Make Magazine – an automatic doggie ball-thrower. Also there were some crazy musical instruments, what appeared to be a cylindrical oscilloscope display, and a robot rolling around with the thrown balls (and kids). As seen in the video, one thing to remember if you’re displaying at a Faire, kids will definitely be there, and will interact with anything they can. This can be good or bad, so make sure you design your display, like [Hackaweek]‘s to be the former. [Dino] also had a projector pointed at the wall playing some video. This made for a great attention-getter! Check out the short videos below of his ball thrower in action and a view of the show from one of his robots! Filed under: cons
