C/C++2010 EmbeddedSpark contest. In 2010 for fun I made a WinCE MP3 powered boombox, controlled by a webcam, and submitted it to Microsofts EmbeddedSpark contest. I made three write ups -- the orignal Entry proposal, a longer writeup on its operations, and and some notes on how the webcam HID interface was implemented.
Finally, a YouTube demo video of me operating the device.
