Text Box: I have made a small robot this week called "Mousey" which is pictured below:

Text Box:  

 

Mousey is made out of an old computer mouse and has light-seeking behavior (when it is functioning!). At present it's wheels are off center and so it has 'tail-seeking' behavior!!! Tiny transmitters from inside the original mouse are used as Mousey's "eyeballs". An LM386 audio operational amplifier IC is used as Mousey's "brain".

 

Full details about Mousey are available in the book which I got the construction details from: "The Absolute Beginner's Guide to Building Robots."

 

More Robots are planned for the near future. Check here for the most recent info.

 

Watch a movie of Mousey<< Attention!
