Maybe you've created your own AR program for wearables that shows the definition of a word when you highlight it IRL, or you've built a personal calendar app for your family to display on a monitor in the kitchen. Whatever it is, I'd love to hear it.

We have pet chickens that we close up every night. I built a door to let us open and close the chicken run from a web page. The door slides horizontally and is driven by a cheap electric drill motor with an all thread rod, which acts as a worm gear, and is controlled by a rpi.
