Mini Atari ST 520 with Arduino, Display and Temperature

thingiverse

This remix of the stunning Atari 520ST designed by RabbitEngineering boasts a graphical display and a temperature sensor, expertly controlled by an Arduino Nano. The innovative way to power it on lies in pressing the num keys on the keyboard, while powering off is seamlessly automated. To perfectly fit the display into the monitor, the model was scaled up by +15%. Key remixed components of this project include space for the display within the monitor, a pushbutton below the keyboard, and a temperature sensor situated beneath the mouse. Additionally, this project introduces a desk to elegantly place all parts in order. Notable features of this project are: Turn on the display with a simple press of the keyboard View whatever you program on the display A sample contains an Atari image and a temperature display The temperature sensor is optional; omitting it will result in no temperature readings, whereas adding multiple sensors allows for sequential display of their values. To utilize multiple sensors, connect them in parallel, necessitating only one 4.7k resistor. See the included HowTo for comprehensive instructions on assembling and building everything.
