Cool Arduino Projects You Can Pull Off Using Other People's Code
While you could (eventually) learn to code Arduino projects yourself and make your Arduino and
Cheap Arduino Compatible do almost anything, you can also simply piggy back off open-source projects already available (that's what this budding Arduino user has done). Programming knowledge isn't required to get started with an Arduino. You just need a little patience. Project complexity varies, but most can be accomplished exclusively with an
Arduino and a computer.
As a beginner myself, many of these projects seemed a bit overwhelming, but I tried my hand at both the Luminch One (interactive lamp), the amp mod, and the PC ambient light with success. Since I typically wake up before the sun is up, my next project is the sunrise alarm clock so I can smooth over the process of getting out of bed. Here's a small taste of some of the simple Arduino projects you can do yourself, no programming experience necessary.
