Lushprojects has a pong playing hat (also displays text, and plays space invaders) – “For the display I used 5×7 LED modules from HP. They were cheap on eBay! The project drives two 21×10 dot displays each made from 6 LED modules. Control is provided by an AVR ATMEGA32L microcontroller. First job was to prototype the hardware on breadboard and do some very simple software…” [via] – Link.

    I really appreciated this article, I’ve got to get the parts together to try and duplicate this for my next party. For those who are interested in some other wacky hat ideas (I love the DIY beer drinking hat),

    Happy Hat Making :) (oh and ponging!)
