USB Laser Duck Solves Lack of Laser Ducks

Rich Gates August 19, 2010 USB Tutorials

I think we can all agree there are not enough USB laser ducks out there.Â To help solve this problem we came across a nice USB laser duck tutorial to take any rubber ducky and turn it into a zombie, creepy laser duck. I don’t think Ernie will be to pleased to hear the news.

The USB hack is fairly simple and the ideal project for a young kid looking to do something cool for the first time.Â All you need is a USB cable, rubber duck and some diodes. You’ll need to solder the diodes to the USB cable, then mount the laser eyes correctly and securely into the rubber ducky.Â If the concept doesn’t make sense, you can jump over to Instructables and get the play-by-play. I think one way to increase the coolness would be stuffing the entire USB cable into the duck body.Â Either that, or take another Instructable where you can increase the laser intensity to pop balloons, burn paper and more… but do it with a bit of caution and common sense.
