switches (for example, with only an on/off button on it and no electronics inside) won't
work for this project.
Then, you need something to insert inside the device we are going to hack. We first need
the "brain" of the system, which is going to be an Arduino board. The problem was that
the device I chose for this project was too small to put an Arduino Uno board inside it.
I therefore had to use a smaller Arduino board. I chose to use boards from TinyCircuits,
which are some of the smallest Arduino boards available. I used a microcontroller, USB,
and prototype board that you can find at http://tiny-circuits.com/ .
The following is an image of the Arduino boards I used to hack the device:
Of course, you can use any other small Arduino boards such as Arduino Micro. You can
also use an Arduino Mini for this project. Any basic Arduino board that will fit into the
device you want to hack will work.
