…yeah! It has been a while, but I am finally moving forward with this project. Since this fall\u00a0I’ve been\u00a0working with engineer\u00a0Timothy Bieniosek\u00a0and it has been a pleasure. After our first day of planning and defining our goal, he immediately said lets hack the mp3 player and lets figure this\u00a0out.\u00a0YEAH!<\/p>\n

Now here is a sneak peek of what we had\u00a0accomplished\u00a0after\u00a0cracking our heads on\u00a0how were were going to\u00a0hack a Sansa Clip MP3 player to play and pause with an arduino\u00a0and how to connect it all to a radio transmitter which will broadcast live to a set of headphones.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0is our Sansa Clip wide-open and exposed with copper-wires connecting to what it used to be a\u00a0mini play\/pause push-bottom.<\/p>\n

Here is Tim connecting the mp3 player to an breadboard and arduino\u00a0to trigger the\u00a0play\/pause of the mp3 player. No significant results yet….<\/p>\n

Here I am\u00a0making a set of 3 diones to drop the\u00a012.60 voltage\u00a0of our rechargeable battery to power\u00a0our radio transmitter that only needs 12 volts. So far so good. It is given out a 12.09 volts. Close enough!<\/p>\n

We were curious how our\u00a0radio transmitter looks on the inside. :))<\/p>\n
