In this video I will show you how to build a simple alarm system for you basement or any other room. I use a reed switch and a key switch as inputs for an Attiny85 to check whether an intruder has entered the room.

In this video I will show you how I updated the old lighting system of an old Moped (Simson S50). I replaced the old bulbs of the turn signals and brake light with LED. We also added under body lights.

In this video I talk about the advantages and disadvantages of the Banana Pi in comparison to the Raspberry Pi (Model B). I also talk about how to get started with the Banana Pi and why it is useful in the coming years.

In this video I will show you how to control two different kinds of 7 segment displays. You will get some information about a BCD-7Segment driver IC and the SAA1064.

I am showing you how to build a color organ while only using an Arduino Uno, one MSGEQ7 and five external electronic components. I am using three high power led and three MOSFET to visualize the three different frequency bands of the music. Join me for this awesome and educational build.

In this video I explain when I like to use PWM and when it is useful to just put a potentiometer in series to you load. Both have their own advantages and disadvantages but none is perfect in all situations.

Having a second monitor for your PC is really helpful sometimes. In this video I will turn the LCD Screen of a broken laptop into a nice looking second monitor for your PC, gaming console or raspberry pi.

Adding bluetooth to your arduino project is simple and super awesome. I will show you how to control your gadgets with your android smartphone.

Build the cube in winter 2012. Took around 2 weeks of work.

I used this tutorial for creating the cube: http://leyanda.de/light/ledcube.php
I did NOT program the animations by myself. You can find the source code on leyanda.de
