Other environmental parameters also matter: temperature and humidity are foremost here. To more easily monitor and display these variables, I&amp;rsquo;ve built an electronic device that collects this data and shows it on the control panel. This is how to build the device.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>How to make Halloween creepy blinking eyes with an ATmel AVR microcontroller</title><link>https://blog.florin-andrei.workers.dev/how-make-halloween-creepy-blinking-eyes-atmel-avr-microcontroller/</link><pubDate>Mon, 31 Oct 2011 23:25:22 -0700</pubDate><guid>https://blog.florin-andrei.workers.dev/how-make-halloween-creepy-blinking-eyes-atmel-avr-microcontroller/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;An ATtiny2313 chip, some C code, a bunch of LEDs and other components - that&amp;rsquo;s your DIY Halloween decoration this year. I&amp;rsquo;ll show you how to do it, and there&amp;rsquo;s a video at the end of this page showing the digital creepiness in action.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
