Question:

Does anyone have suggestions for something cool to make using an arduino?

I'm building an electric house using foam core for the walls for physicsThe house is 2ft wide, 2ft longand 14 inches tallPart of the grade is putting something in the house that does something cool using an arduinoAn example is an elevator that stops on each floorI don't want to do the elevator thoughSo I need some suggestionsIt would be greatly appreciated if you could explain how the build process works and the materials I will need.

Answer:

How about lighting for the house? You could use optical sensors to detect presence in a room and turn on the light.
One of my cats loved jumping up on everythingWhen I accidentally forgot to clean up the honey I spilled on the counter, he jumped up there and got his paws stickyEver since then, he doesn't jump on my counterslol Wouldn't really recommend that though? L.K.'s answer seems better! ;)
Hmmm, try loud noises when she jumps onto the counterThe spraying didn't work with my cats either, so loud noisesHope this helped.
Add a little white vinegar to the squirt bottleYell 'no' loudly when she gets up there, and squirt her with the vinegar (try to avoid the eyes)It won't hurt her but to a cat's sensitive nose, it smells terrible!
Hi, Here are a couple idea's! (1.) Get a water bottle that squirts out when you squeeze itThen whenever she goes up onto the counters, squirt her with the waterThis has helped lots of my friends! (2.) If you ever see her on the counters, smack her and throw her off Hope these help! xx
