pumpkinbot

Hack-o'-Lantern '13

Introduction

This project was born of three requirements:

  1. The @blip office has an IRC server that people actually use
  2. The @blip IRC server has a bot - plusplusbot - that keeps score when people get ++'s and --'s
  3. @rickyrobinett invited me to Hack-o-Latern '13 and i couldn't say no

so the goal of this project is simple: announce plusplusbot awards via an LED-illuminated hack-o-lantern

Code

IRC gateway

Node.js app that monitors IRC for plusplusbot awards and relays them to an Arduino:

  • ./pumpkinbot_js

LED controller

Ethernet shield -> Arduino -> LED-laden pumpkin:

  • ./pumpkinbot_cc
