So for my electronics class this year we were tasked with creating some kind of electronic gadget in order to demonstrate what we learned over the semester. Being a car-loving type of guy, I decided to get a cheap RC car and see in what ways I could hack it using an Arduino Leonardo I had l...

My initial ...

An added bonus is that It plays the Super Mario Theme Song as its alarm. How it works: It is more pleasant to wake up in the morning if ...
