Whisker V3



We were disappointed when the second iteration of our whisker kept falling over during the demo, so the class's positive response to our whisker's disability was a pleasant surprise. We decided to keep the whisker slightly unstable and have it fall when its eye was covered, using a photoresistor to detect the low light. Unfortunately, the sensor was a bit too sensitive, so the whisker kept falling all over the place. The class wasn't able to discover why but had some fun messing around with the little guy who seemed to have broken free from whatever outlet he had been tethered to.
