I love that project, but this style of thing is arguably even more elegant. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funnily enough I happen to have some small solar panels and a selection of geared motors. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moparmuppet Posted October 4 Share Posted October 4 My daughter built 1 in @Willdat? s class a few years ago using 4 light detecting diodes, arduino switched on every half hr, running Chinese 40 to 1 motors onto a couple of gearboxes for electric window regulators. Safety cams and switches to limit movement if a bird takes a dump on the diodes. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
