Sources for Parts
Hacking / Disassembly
use existing high-tech, but inexpensive, objects, toys and devices as cheap source of parts
for your projects
little specialist knowledge is required, photograph and document the disassembly
``Low tech sensors and actuators for artists and architects’’ provides examples, by Usman
Haque and Adam Somlai-Fischer
Purchase / Stores
Many parts are available locally in UL, ask.
Online vendors for electronic parts include farnell.com, mouser.com, and digikey.com
Sensors, shields, kits, servos can also be found from sparkfun.com or parallax.com
Many others, just small selection that I’ve used.
