Digidrench whets our appetite for water-based Arduino adventures (video)

Digidrench whets our appetite for water-based Arduino adventures (video)

Wondering what you get when you mix an Arduino kit with some food coloring and plenty of water. Well, the Digidrench team came up with the concept of developing a media controller that mimics the flow of water in and out of three separate containers. The pay-off. Seeing three of the team get coated in a brightly colored mess. An Arduino kit is connected to a sensor that gauges the amount of water in the tanks and transmits the watery action to a corresponding video slice. Take the water out, and the deluge reverses. Pour faster, and the test subjects get poured on faster. Pour slowly and, well, you get it.
