Prize Winners Stick
Shift Auto Racing Simulator The Stick Shift Auto Racing Simulator is a modification to a commercially available steering wheel joystick interface that provides a realistic auto racing environment for computer, yet requires no special modifications to the computer game. The addition of a clutch pedal and a stick shift assembly allows the player to experience an engine stall or grinding gears, just like you would in a standard transmission automobile.
I2C
Menu The I2C Menu is an I2C interfaced unit for simple and flexible menu-type selection, including the ability to write application-specific text to the LCD module. The project uses a 2 × 16 LCD, a buzzer, backlight control, contrast regulation, two soft keys, and two scroll keys. To save application code space, the menu structure and setup values for the unit can be preloaded into the EEPROM.
Strobe
Clock The Strobe Clock is a pen-sized pocket clock that displays the time with the wave of the wand by using LEDs aligned in a vertical column. By turning the LEDs on or off at the proper positions, any number of characters can be displayed. Using only five LEDs, it achieves a vertical resolution of five and an unlimited horizontal resolution.
R/C
Radio Using the Micrel single-chip RF receiver, this R/C radio and receiver provides an inexpensive "throwaway" product for the increasingly popular class of micro R/C airplanes, which are flown the length of a typical front yard or large living room. The whole device (with the receiver) costs under $5 to manufacture in any kind of quantity. This is a welcome improvement from the $150 or so that it costs for conventional high-power four channel radios that are currently used for micro aircraft.
