[Edit: Since having many failed attempts at the motor control, I have decided to re-route my final.]
'''Midterm Project: Final Project Concept'''
A while back I found this toy in a box in my closet:
If the toy falls over, the user can press a button to lift the toy to be standing again.
I would like for it to be able to navigate itself through its environment using Ping((( sensors,
and auto-correct if it falls over using home made tilt sensors.
For the midterm, I would only expect to be able to make it auto correct via the tilt sensors:

Update: I have only been able to get the tilt sensor to work outside of the toy. The complicated circuitry in the toy is making for a very difficult transplant.
