There ya go


Arduino MINI is shit

Well it look cool and stuff but I just can't seem to get it to work.

Manual Doors Installation

With the help of Ben to create a very cool origami ball, I've also put in 5 bright white LEDs into it.
The LEDs will turn on in sequence and will always be on, so people will notice it at all time.

The reason I've chosen to use origami is because its a very interesting craft that will fascinate a lot of people. And for it to be effective I've used tracing paper to make it, making the LEDs more visible.

Something Attractive

I've decided to use origami as an incentive to draw in people to the manual door.

I'm thinking of shoving in some LEDs to light it up from the inside making it more attractive.

Automated Door Installation

For this I'm using 3 ultra bright Red LEDs.
The infrared will detect passerby which will activate the lights, in a flashing/warning sort of pattern.

This should surprise and intimidate them, making them want to stay away.

Infrared Sensor

I've recently purchased and put together an Infrared sensor.
I've decided on using this for the intimidation installation. As someone walk through the sliding door the infrared sensor will detect their presence and will activate the LEDs.

I'm hoping this will surprise them, adding to the negative overall experience getting through the sliding door.
