Warning! This project contains spoilers from Game of Thrones season 5, episode 10.

A tribute to Cersei Lannister, who will be dying soon, I guess!

Shame button project with Arduino

I built a shame button with Arduino and 1Sheeld to mess with my co-workers at the office, since we are all Game of Thrones fanatics!

It's very easy to build, I got push button, put it into the 1Sheeld package, and connected it to Arduino.

When the button is pressed, it triggers the music player shield in 1Sheeld to play the 'shame' soundtrack.

Full circuit

I used an Olkya Bolt Bluetooth speaker so I can shame my co-workers from a distance, and not feel the shame myself.

Select music player shield in 1Sheeld app

Open shame soundtrack on your smartphone

The code is very easy, with 1 line of code I was able to play this soundtrack, everything is in the code attached below, it's a modification of the music player shield example in 1Sheeld library.

Enjoy the shame button, shame your friends, shame your co-workers and don't forget to shame the project .. I mean share it!

P.S: If you don't like to build hardware, there is this shame app. But, hardware is cool, build it!

       /* Turn on the music. */
       MusicPlayer.play();
       /* Wait for 300 ms. */
       OneSheeld.delay(300);
  }
}
