The case is named a reverse geocache and it will probably only open when it’s in a definite spot on earth. It was made with a metal box, IKEA door handles, nixietubes to display distance, a GPS sensor and an Arduino.
It appears like a sexy complicated project (the paint and IKEA door handles as bars do a decent job to add to that), but I like the postulate of reverse geocaching. It’s like the ideal gift box. [ Arduino via MAKE ]
