Fellas, you&re gonna want that cowbell.
And what better way to get that cowbell than with an automatic cowbell-playing robot that uses simple components to create a musical experience like no other.
The system, built over at Adafruit, includes a simple Arduino controller, a potentiometer to control the speed of the cowbell hammer, and a few audio systems to play back some BÖC and the immortal words of The Bruce Dickinson: &More cowbell.&It even includes a controller to activate a fog machine for a little extra rock and roll.You can download the code for the system here and there is a full build guide here.
Ultimately this is one of the silliest DIY projects I&ve seen in a while but, as you may recall, the only prescription for certain fevers is obviously more cowbell.
