Anyone here do stuff with Arduino? If so, what do you usually use it for?

I have an arduino-based fermentation temperature control device (aka brewpi spark). So, I use one to make beer (monitor and control the temperature at which fermentation takes place).
ETA: I was mistaken. The brewpi spark is not based on Arduino. Its predecessor was though. My bad.

I do a lot of programming with Arduino. Lately I've been doing projects using XBee wireless modules.
One major project that I just completed is a basic home security system. I built some XBees/PIR motion sensor circuits and placed them around my house and built and an Arduino base circuit connected to an XBee receiver that sounds an alarm if any of the sensors detect motion. So I basically just turn this on at night. I set a different alarm tone specific to each individual sensor that detected motion.
I've also built a couple of robots controlled by Arduino. This video is pretty crappy, but this is me testing the motors from a radio controller.

Closest I have gotten is using a Raspberry Pi to build a Heatermeter for my Smokin It 3 Smoker.
