The king returns

Aleksandr's back in the office and is greeted with laughs, smiles and amused comments...

Pimped 2.0?

Aleksandr's been opened up again in an attempt to reduce his fat-neck. His range and ease of motion is much improved but the PIR sensor doesn't give the desired effect. Let's face it; with the 3 or 4 hours spent on it, cobbled together from parts from my junk draw; he's not going to be perfect! The PIR sensor triggers the motion  OK but the servo really needs to be told to return fully the other way. What it needs is a microcontroller to properly command the servo (and increase the range), switch the LED eyes and do some more sophisticated behaviour.

Should I volunteer?

Most people have stone lions, we have Meerkats.

Gary, Sergey and Aleksandr. I forget which one's which...Aleksandr
