The project I'm highlighting is the "Etch-A-Sketch Clock" and Arduino/Etch-A-Sketch interfacing in general. I'm very interested in the Arduino's ability to cross over from the virtual to the physical and the Etch-A-Sketch example shows just that. Now although I probably won't be using an Etch-A-Sketch for my project, the use of servo motors seems like something I'd like to incorporate. I've also looked up a few self-balancing "robots" and those seem to catch my eye, too...

Could this be based off an Arduino-like system? Maybe.

Wait... Was the point of this to learn about all the amazing things Arduinos could be set up to do? Nooooo... Couldn't be.
