Thing a Day 14: NES Pixel Test



Today, I went old school. Sort of. Well, knock-off old school, given that the NES-style controller that I'm using isn't authentic.

What's going on? I'm using an Arduino (microcontroller) to drive a backlit LCD screen, and I'm using the NES controller (plus connector adapter) to move around the shorter of the 16 black boxes. Nothing terribly fancy -- but it's a step in the right direction for the super secret project that I'm building.

Of course, you might very well be able to guess what I'm working toward.. ;)
