Mega Turbo Update - Progress

Ok wow i had a really good first week off and have this week been trying to get back into it again so here is the progress so far:

So what am i up to with project 2:

The Problem: People are starting to get RSI up on the 4th floor computer lab.

The Idea: To sustain people working on 4th floor, by distracting them from their work and keeping them interested for a short time.

I have been looking into what will distract me from the computer. And the things i came up with are:

• Light
• Noise
• Movement

Then what would keep my attention for a while as to have a rest from the computer and things:

• Intricate Parts and Pieces
• Being able to see inside to these intricate things.

Here is what i am now working on in brief:

• Strobe Light
• Vibrating Container
• Noise Maker - A large speaker.
  
• Solar panel Charged

Here is the container i have chosen. It is clear but still small enough to be intricate.
I am currently constructing a mini strobe light to go inside of the container. I got this one from Jaycar for about $20.I also brought a vibrator from the Adult Mega Store. As they had really cheap and good vibrating power vibrators. I have hacked it so i can control when it turns on. I have also stripped away the "p***s" part of the vibrator to reveal just the vibrating part. Ha ha ha what a laugh it was buying this with Mouse.
Bottom of the vibrator. I have attached some wires to it.
The solar panel with wires attached

So the plan for today is to get the inner frame and all of the electronic parts done so that all i have to do is programme the arduino and tweek a few things. I think that this project would be an interesting thing to have around the house after the project has finished. I am enjoying the physical side of the project. Stay tuned for updates and more exciting images.
