Autonomous Robot Part 1 – Ghosty

Ghosty is an autonomous little robot who is adventurous and loves to explore his surrounds. However, unlike a normal ghost, he doesn’t like to scare people. Instead they actually scare him! His vision line is a proximity sensor that tells him when he had gotten too close to something. He then gets spooked and flails his arms and reverses his course.

To do:

Our little ghosty is going to undergo more iterations in design to hide his guts (the arduino and breadboard) and to have a stouter, less pin-headed body.

Technically he is in for a revamping of his circuitry to optimize the use of his wheels and guide more smoothly along the ground
