The community voting today alarmed me to finally put in a contest entry to have at least a glance at winning something. This doesn't feel like the best choice for the contest to win it, but I could not come up with something really good "connected thing" and didn't want to start a new project so I felt the best would be to pick an existing. Let me go through the pros and cons of my projects.
Towani Lifesign Device
[http://hackaday.io/project/616-Towani-Lifesign-Wristdevice---Star-Wars-Ewoks]
it would be interesting enough to put this to a next level by connecting it to the internet somehow, since its health related and has a social component as well. But it's not unique and not my Idea in the first place - you've seen it in star wars. Sounds like way too much trouble to get the licenses.
Sonic Screwdriver

The same here for the licenses since BBC and Doctor Who are a big number and frankly my sonic is a colored flashlight with annoying sounds and a 433MHz transmitter. Why would I connect that with anything.
Locomatrix 3D POV
[http://hackaday.io/project/1148-Locomatrix---3D-POV---a-different-approach]
So here we are, my contest entry. It is a unique way to display three dimensional data with LEDs. I'm able to display N x 8x8 datasets where N is limited by the interval I divide the z-axis. It's not a prop I put some LEDs and an arduino in. It's my design I put some LEDs and an arduino in ;) I'm gonna find something useful to show on my display, may be the weather forecast or depth scanner output device. Any ideas are welcome.
