Ubuntu 11.10 unity sucks!



This unity interface is ... sucks !

Flexibility has gone... customizing become more difficult....

Ubuntu desktop cube rotating by human physical motion.


Not so complicated as it appears.


Two distance measuring sensors detect motion and send signals to the AVR board behind the monitor.

Then, the AVR board analyze whether the object is moving to right or left, and send analyzed result to PC (ubuntu) through USB serial port.

On ubuntu, python program daemon read the serial data, and rotate desktop cube.




It was my first AVR playing.
Very funny.
