Android based Cellular printer allows you literally write on walls!

Do we not all covet that courteous opportunity to make our lousy neighbors know what we really think about them? Well, clearly one among us has stepped up and did something about it, by contriving an Android based Cellular printer. It allows us to print messages on the wall (not the Facebook, but the real one), and in the process have our sweet revenge on our neighbors from afar.

Basically the wall printer is a manually handheld device with seven markers. We can print messages on the wall by simply sliding this device over the wall surface, while the magically 'dotted' effect gets displayed on it. The seven independent servo motors move the markers up and down, exhibiting dots and dashes; and that too in carefully timed phase.

The whole printer system utilizes an IOIO board to electronically link its components to an Android device. So, fundamentally, we can control the printer from an Android application, when connected to a mobile phone. This allows the system to be directly fed by SMS text messages, Facebook statuses, GPS coordinates and also other digital data sources.
