The Stormtrooper was created utilizing the following materials. Mannequin - Fully adjustable male mannequin (www.zingdisplay.com) Costume - Collector Supreme Edition, Star Wars, Stormtrooper Costume (Amazon) Gloves - Rubie's Star Wars Darth Vader Gloves, Black, Adult (Amazon) Elvis Shoes - (Amazon) Ribbed Neckseal - (www.triktoys.com) Helmet - FX Star Wars a New Hope Stormtrooper Helmet (Amazon) The Helmet that came with the costume was not very good Main Controller - BooBox Flex Max (FrightProps.com) DMX to RC Interface - SVR08M 8 channel controller board (nothlightdmx.com) Remote Control - Wireless Trigger (2-Relay) (FrightProps.com) I installed a lazy susan bearing where the mannequin would go. I did not use the mannequin head. A rod connected to a servo is used to turn the mannequin head. The fingers were cut from the mannequin hands and servos are used to emulate the Stormtrooper typing. The controller had 2 built in servo channels but I had some issues with them so I bought a DMX to RC converter board. The controller also has a fully programmable DMX output and with the DMC to RC board I was able to obtain additional servo channels.

The Darth Vader was created utilizing the following materials. Light Saber - Star Wars Force FX Light Saber Darth Vader (Amazon) Mannequin - Dark Black Color Full Size Masculine Male Mannequin WM-15 (Ebay HD Mannequin Supply) Costume - Star Wars Darth Vader Collector's (Supreme) Edition (Amazon) Gloves - Rubie's Star Wars Darth Vader Gloves, Black, Adult (Amazon) Boots - CAP100(Medium 10-11, Black) Jedi Warrior Boots (Amazon) Helmet - Darth Vader Limited Edition Helmet Replica (Big Bad Toy Store) The Rubies Helmet was OK but the Limited Edition helmet is nicer LED Base - 24" x 24" LED RGB Wall Panel (Wiedamark). This is a RGB wall panel that I modified as the base for Darth Vader Controller - BooBox Flex Max (FrightProps.com) Remote Control - Wireless Trigger (2-Relay) (FrightProps.com)

The clock will display the time using 4 analog meters. This clock announces the time at half hour intervals and plays a message whenever the clock is first powered on. I incorporated time set capability to the clock via a rocker switch and pushbutton interface. The analog meter gauge plates and pushbutton panel are 3D printed in glow in the dark material so they are always visible. I added ultraviolet LEDs to the gauges and the pushbutton panel that will provide a nice purple lighting effect and charge the glow in the dark material. The clock is 3D printed and utilizes one Arduino Mega 2560, one Music Maker MP3 shield, one DS1307 real time clock, four rocker switches, one up/down momentary pushbutton switch and 12 3mm ultraviolet LEDs.

The Stargate DHD was designed to be a freestanding unit with a center crystal on the DHD device that will illuminate via two AA batteries. The illumination of the crystal is provided via a color changing RGB LED. The unit was designed to accommodate a request from a user that is getting married and wanted to have a Stargate DHD as a centerpiece on each of the tables at the reception. That was just nerdy and cool enough to peak my interest. The result is a wedding centerpiece or Stargate prop that any nerd would be proud of. The LED was running for 5 days straight on the (2) AA batteries with no sign of degradation. I finally stopped the test since I figured 5 days was a sufficient run time test. The Stargate DHD is 3D printed and utilizes a single LED powered by two AA batteries. Additional information regarding this can be found at http://www.guarnero.com

The time circuit clock will display the following via the LED displays. Destination Time – (Top-Red) The destination time is an area that shows a fixed date and time. This area is used to display an important date in your life such as wedding, Birthday or the date you first discovered this most excellent clock. Present Time – (Middle-Green) The present time is the current date and time. You set this initially when you download the Arduino and you can adjust the hour and minute via the RGB LCD display keypad. Last Time Departed – (Bottom-Yellow) The last time departed will alternate between three different important dates every 20 seconds. Use this for birthdays, the date you finished building the clock, the day you met your significant other, etc. Features The time circuit will announce the time between the hours of 8:00 AM and 9:30 PM. The time is generated via the Music Maker MP3 shield. The audio files for the time announcement was recorded by my wife and are included. To enhance the clock further, I enlisted a voice impersonator that recorded the time announcements as Doc Browns voice. The clock is 3D printed and utilizes (1) Arduino Uno, (1) Music Maker MP3 shield, (1) ChronoDot real time clock, (1) RGB LCD keypad, (9) 3 mm LEDs, (1) voltage isolator and a few other components.

The Stargate DHD clock will display the time using NeoPixel LED’s oriented around a simulated clock face. The clock provides an hourly and half hour chime that can be turned on and off. The hours and minutes can be set via pushbuttons located on rear of the clock base. The center crystal on the DHD clock will illuminate on the hour and half hour for one minute. The illumination of the crystal is provided via a color changing RGB LED. The hour is represented by a NeoPixel LED changing to red, the minute is represented by a NeoPixel LED changing to green and the seconds are represented by the NeoPixel LEDs changing to a blue color as the second’s increment. Using this method, reading the clock is very intuitive. As the seconds increase, each LED will change to a blue color. The Red (Hour) or Green (Minute) LEDs will not be overwritten by the Blue seconds LEDs. The clock is 3D printed and utilizes one Arduino UNO, four NeoPixel rings and a real time clock.
