With Arduino, as usual the code was quite simple. In fact, I spent more time building the circuit than in writing the code. The only disadvantage I found in the Arduino board was that the PORTD and PORTB sockets have a small gap in between them. Because of this gap, I am not able to evenly fit male-female socket pairs. As a result, I cannot make small home-made Arduino shields using general purpose PCBs. The result? I had to cut pieces of a circuit board with a hack saw, make 2 thin strips, and then had to solder my connectors over..."

I thought it might be uncomfortable to wear the original device at night so I installed it in a stardard sleeping mask. It works perfectly and even has a little pouch to easily reach in and switch it on and off. You can press the button through the mask too if you want. It's not rocket science but I thought people might want to see this variation to the mask. The first night I used the mask it worked perfectly. I dreamt I was walking through a hallway and the lights above my head started blinking on and off. I looked up at them and then thought, "Oh yeah, it's the mask!" Then I woke up. The key is obviously to take control from that point. Unfortunately I was on a plane a few months ago and accidentally left the mask in the seat pocket! That's why these images are poor quality. They're from my cell phone and are the only ones I have. I'm sure the flight attendant didn't expect to find a "brain..."

Since the vinyl doesn't impede the touch input, I tried a small bump in the center of the Dpad, and also over A and B. The bumps act like home-key bumps on your computer keyboard. This was great (read as high score in Defender) but the small vinyl buttons kept sliding around. I tried soapy water (and considered rubbing the iphone on my head to develop a stronger static charge) but couldn't find a reliable and removable adhesive. I think a drop of candle wax might do the trick, but I have an aversion to holding a burning candle to any $500 object that isn't a very expensive birthday cake.
