Building an Arduino-Based Laser Game

[ Thanks to An Anonymous Reader for this link. ]

"Whether you're new to Arduino or a seasoned builder, this project has something for you. There's nothing quite as satisfying as creating an interactive physical object, knowing that if it breaks or needs modification, you know where all the parts go and how everything works. The 'Duino tag gun is a great project to work on by yourself or with friends. To complete this project, you should at least have a basic understanding of electronics (you should know what a resistor is, but you don't need to know the science behind one) and have an understanding of programming (you should know what loops and variables are, but you don't need to be able to parse Big O Notation). Don't be afraid to jump right in."
