Wireless Sega Genesis Controller for Wii

Created by emptyset 1 year ago

"Many of you may have seen the wireless SNES and NES controller designed by Mark Feldman (available at http://www.ppl-pilot.com/) which was amazing but, unlike like many unfortunate souls out there, I was blessed to have a Sega genesis as a child. I was inspired by his hack, and went out and..."

"Stereoscopy is a hobby of mine, and I have a large collection of devices for viewing 3-D images and videos, both high-tech and low-tech, but until recently, I didn't have a vintage "Holmes-style" stereoscope card viewer. That changed when I purchased a nice century-old viewer at the annual Stereo..."

Created by natetrue 1 year ago

"We've all had the same thing happen to us while listening to music on our iPods at the Internet Café - in order to hear your music over the din, we have to crank it up so much that we are permanently damaging our hearing.

Artful custom digital camera skin: The Eye

Created by natetrue 1 year ago

"When I got my Kodak V570 dual-lens digital camera, I found the front face to be far too plain. The purpose and look of the camera lends itself well to an 'eye' sort of design, so I hopped on over to eBay to get some full sheet labels which are just 8.5x11 inch sticky labels. ..."

The "Walluminate"

Created by natetrue 1 year ago

"I first got exposed to the glorious field of illuminating wallets when shooting Gear Live's The Bleeding Edge, a weekly video show. They had been sent the Walit, an electroluminescent glowing wallet, to review. I was excited at the idea - I had personally never thought of a glowing wallet and..."

Old laptop picture frame

Created by natetrue 2 years ago

"My sister loves looking at photos. I'd seen do-it-yourself picture frames on Slashdot before, and you can buy digital picture frames here and there, but it's really something else to design and perform this laptop-into-picture-frame mod yourself.
