FUBARINO CONTEST: NETWORK NODES, DOOR LOCK, and SMOKER CONTROLLER

Here’s a round-up of three different Fubarino contest entries; a video of each is available after the break.

On the upper left are the beginnings of a network node tracking system established by [Stephane]. When the network checks the weather, it may identify that it’s far too extreme outside and time to go in to see what’s new on Hackaday. There’s only sparse information available on the hardware. Each node utilizes an ATtiny84 and an RFM12B—different sensors linked to every are used to build up the network’s data collection capabilities.

In the lower left is [Brett’s] Bluetooth door lock controller. The Arduino, a low-cost Bluetooth module, and a relay board comprise the base station which will eventually connect to an electronic lock. [Brett] utilizes a smart phone to punch in the access code, and entering “1337” four times in a row unlocks the Easter egg, showing our URL on the character LCD. Here’s the code repository for his project.

To the best is the display for [Andy’s] smoker controller used for cooking. He already had some hidden features on the controller used to calibrate the thermocouple. For the contest, he simply added an additional button to extend the original menu access method.

This is an entry in the Fubarino Contest for a chance at one of the 20 Fubarino SD boards which Microchip has put up as prizes!
