RC Explores my Living Room While I watch A New Hope
On his head is an Arduino Nano ESP32 and a lux sensor. (and a Cheez-It box) I’m running a script from my laptop that has the droid move forward (my carpet often causes him to turn), then check whether the current light level is lower than the average. If it is, he looks left and right and then picks the lighter direction. If both sides are about equal, he backs up.
You’ll notice that he comes up to me, then turns and starts moving in the general direction of the window.
Moving forward, I want to give him some choreographed actions and noises between light-check steps. I’m also struggling a bit with the carpet in my apartment, and my kitchen, which has tile, is a little too small to do much in.
