Reverse engineering laboration

This friday we had an lab where we did a morning hack session. Each of us had brought an electrical device to the class and the task was to choose one device and investigate its functionality by seperating and exploring the parts. We took my old pool thermometer and seperated all parts and discussed how it worked. It was fun, altough the device didn't have so many parts so we finished quite early. The rest of the lecture we therefore brainstormed about our upcoming project. We have agreed to create some kind of activity board, but exactly how it should work and the target group is not decied yet. We want to use LED-light and buttons to create some kind of interaction. We have access to Arduino in the group and also a 3D-printer, so we have good opportunities to create something fun and explore with different shapes, materials and light effects.

Below is some pictures from the morning hack :)
