Yes. This is the sort of project folks do with Arduino systems
all the time. Look at the forums on http://arduino.cc/

Arduino is a super low-barrier-to-entry microcontroller development
platform aimed (partly) at education and artists.


I just got an Arduino MEGA2560 Board in the mail today. I'm waiting
on the prototype card to build a project.
