It's like a hacker version of this: http://www.amazon.com/Withings-WiFi-Body-Scale-Black/dp/B002...

Very good - I am working with several wifi enabled arduino packages - hoping to link back to a Raspberry Pi using this Kickstarter project http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ciseco/eve-alpha-raspber... which looks likely to get funded.

Now this is actually a thing I could use Arduino for! Most of the projects I see on Arduino-related sites are cute toys, but not too many useful things.

I, personally, would like to see more of DIY projects describing how to do Wi-Fi or Bluetooth enabled:

- Blood Pressure monitor

- Heart rate monitor

- Weather station with hygrometer and barometer

- Security camera with motion detection

- Mood lamp (or lighting system) with voice recognition

There's a nice sensor for heart rate for Arduino: http://pulsesensor.com/

I've set up security cameras with motion detection using Raspberry Pi.

i think i've seen all of these already- with an Arduino no less. true to the Arduino, these are all composed of the same 2 parts: input and output. if you're able to understand or create any one of these projects, the theory behind the other ones falls into place.

Very nice write-up. Side-note: It's really interesting to see code written in Italian.

Which makes it quite annoying to read. I'm not a native english speaker but that does not mean that I would write code written in german idioms - not even in the comments...
