HACKTOR - the Elektor dog - a PCB platform [150119]
Hacktor is a modular PCB development platform... oh, and by the way, also a dog. It's still a work in progress, but it will be ready to bark at the moon (and to any other stranger who gets close enough) pretty soon, so stay tuned!

It will feature a proximity sensor in order to detect when you're near it, playing a barking sound with an audio IC and turning its LED eyes on. Well, and its name says it all... it will be ready for your own hacks indeed!
