The CPod is a project that brings together vehicles, gaming, comfort, coolness, extravagance, and shear pimping. What we did is take half a Renault Megane, the back half, and pimp it everything a geek can ask for, including: PC, sound system, secondary touch screen for control, XBox console and projector. As a bonus we added a small circuit that listens for volume changes and powers a strong set of light-bulbs located in the trunk and under the car. In a dark setting, the car beams to the beat of the music/games being played.

We built a machine that verifies the level of geekness by asking simple questions on a small LCD screen. The cool thing is that this whole device is built into an antique volt meter. The level of the tester's geekness is displyed using the needle of the volt meter.

The main idea of this project is to take the oldest, most low-tech project and to build it in using the as much technology as we can find. The board is RFID-enabled, and the pacman is mounted on a radio controlled car which is controlled by a cell phone using bluetooth *gasp*, which in turn drives the pacman in the game. So in fact, you'd be playing the physical pacman on the virtual board.

This robot took part in the FIRST Robotics 2006 competition in Israel. One of the cool features of this robot is that we have mounted a rabbi on it. The rabbi is holding a turning streering wheel, which gives the effect as if he is the driver.

Connect the small vibrators in your Xbox remote to larger vibrators and put them under your chair (chair is upside down in the picture). This really enhances the game play..
