Real life Minecraft block combines cardboard box, Arduino, and a projector (video)

Real life Minecraft block combines cardboard box, Arduino, and a projector (video)

You know how when you were a kid, the box something came in was almost as fun as the toy itself. Well, that doesn't have to change as you get older - provided you've retained that creative spark. Ben Purdy apparently kept his imagination nimble and, with the help of a projector, a piezo element and an Arduino (of course), turned a plain ol' box into a real life Minecraft block. Hit the cube with a stick, or anything really, and the projection-mapped image starts to deteriorate and particles tumble off as you mine it.
