Here are some projects where I have used my electronics skills

A custom built adapter box that turns an elliptical exercise machine into a Google Street View controller, via USB HID. Powered by Arduino.

Another project involving both electronics and programming: a traffic light for a classroom that can indicate to students how much time is left to work on an assignment, or what the noise level of the classroom is at.

My first programming and electronics project: a wireless water meter for an outside stream. There are two Arduino units that communicate over 2.4Ghz using the inexpensive nRF24L01+ radios, and send information about the water level of the outside stream, temperature, and humidity.
