Mini Times Square Ball

World Maker Faire 2015

September 26th-27th

Exhibit Young Makers

My project is an Arduino-controlled model of the Times Square Ball with a glass ball that goes up and down, a countdown from 60 to 0 synced with the Ball, and plays Old Lang Syne. There are ads, like the real Times Square Building, lit up by LEDs.

I am a 8th grader at Scarsdale Middle School. I have been programming since I was seven and have been making things even before that. Recently, I have been working on many different projects that I hope to show the public at next year's Maker Faire.
