Minecraft Creeper

This is my first Arduino project. I have worked with the handyboard and NXT few years ago. The Arduino seems popular and easy to get into for people from non-electronic background like me, so I decided to build something simple to get myself familiarize with the Arduino board and interfaces. For the look I decided to make it the Minecraft Creeper, for the non-gamers, it's a iconic mob that appears in the 8-bit inspired 3D game Minecraft.

The creeper is a mob which runs around in the game searching for the player, if it get close enough to the player, it will detonate itself and blow up everything nearby. Underneath the frame is built using aluminium materials. I got a Mega 2560 board on it. I got most of the parts running well, now I just need a nice look body for the creeper. Hopefully I can make it to recognize some designated objects, to mimick the search action in the game. Resources. Exemples - STONEBLOX. Why use MinecraftEDu versus regular Minecraft?

In addition to individual players, we hope that parents and educators who want to introduce quantum physics concepts to curious kids will find it useful. MinecraftEdu vs Regular Minecraft: The Teacher’s Dilemma. “Should I get MinecraftEdu or regular Minecraft for my classroom?”

All that plus getting to work with some wonderfully Finnish geniuses who I now consider family.
