distance

Reader [Joshua] sent in his latest project. using a sonar rangefinder,
an Arduino, and some clever programming, he's made is computer react to
his distance from it. As you can see in the video after the jump, he has
programmed it to change text size and background color depending on his
distance from the screen. While he admits that his implementation
doesn't seem immediately useful, there's lots of potential there. We
can actually think of several uses. What would you use it for?

I would use mine to make my text readable as I move away from and closer
to the screen...

Go there...
