You’re doing it wrong brother, if you’re doing it IRL that’s work, good riddance…
But for real, that’s really cool! You hooked up a motor and photo resistors to a controller you’ve programmed? Bonkers. Do you have any write up about it? super curious about how you did it.
I used to teach tech making to students in a program and we did all kinds of little projects with microcontrollers and basic electronics, but also laser cutters and early 3D printing (pre makerbot). Almost 20 years ago now, so most of the documentation is lost to time.
Arduinos are fun to play with though, there’s lots of examples and libraries out there, and the clone market means you can get them in 5 packs for only a few dollars. Motor controller boards, all kinds of sensor breakouts and tiny servos are also cheap as chips these days.
You could spend the rest of your free time on that too!
