Woah!

We were talking the other night about a simple project that isn't too much 
different from the blinking project mentioned, and a garden light.

My idea was to build a small box with a solar panel and a bright LED, that 
recharges during the day and cuts on at night. The bright led would shine 
through a laser cut logo, and then a focusing lens. Basically, a 
micro-logo projector. There is a crosswakl signal that the device could 
sit on and project a logo on the wall of the building.

What would be wild is if it could detect motion and just flash the logo 
when people are around.
