Project Progress (updated 05.26.2009)
Final: Tuesday June 9, 12pm-3pm
So far I have gotten the switch to function on the toaster using a photoresistor. I've purchased and soldered wires to the dot matrix LED's but have yet to make efficient experimentation with lighting up a face. I've also gotten an RC car to take apart. It's fairly easy to remove the top if I remove the screws underneath. I'm not yet sure how I will attach these to the toaster and I might have to get materials to make a base (for aesthetics, and to hide all the wiring...and probably have to get anyway, the way I'm working with the wheels right now XD)
p.s. in case i did not mention, the issue of the toaster being plugged in will be resolved by letting it either 1. unplug itself if the motors/servos are strong enough or 2. let it get stuck and 3. the cord is rather short, so I might need an extension cord, but. we shall see.
I need to get # 1 LN2803 (NPN transistor array), # 1 4017 (decade counter) and. batteries. several of them.
AND. I MUST BUY POPTARTS. FOR THE TOASTER TO KIDNAP. YAY.
