  • attach your Pager Motors to your Popper using two Fuse Clips, two Small Paper Clips, and no solder
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Set one straightened paper clip aside, you will use it at the end. Bend the two tips of one of the two paper clips as shown.
  • Put it in through the fuse clip like this, but make sure the notch in the fuse clip is facing out. (The clip has one edge bent inwards. This is the part that has to face outwards). Study this next picture closely.
  • From the position above, bend the paper clip up and then around the lead of the fuse clip as in the next picture.
  • Bend the paper clip under the fuse clip...
  • then up and over the fuse clip:
  • then around its other lead and you're almost done with the first fuse clip.
  • First clip -- wire is on the RIGHT side of the fuse clip leads... Second Clip -- wire is on the LEFT side of the fuse clip leads... But remember to make sure the notch in the fuse clip is facing out. (The clip has one edge bent inwards. This is the part that has to face outwards).  Follow all the steps above with the second clip and you get this:

  • It's practically impossible to solder the FLEDs straight using only your hands
  • This part is rather tricky because there's so little space between the Solar Engine and the 3300uF Cap. -- You can leave more space here if you like, but it just looks better if you keep it all nice and tight
  • Find two FLEDs with the same (or very similar) resistance

  • It's simply a Phototropic BiCore driving two small motors
  • I had to add resistors across the motor leads to slow them down! I got this idea from Ben Hitchcock's Fred Troubleshooting Page -- "D) If the motor fires strongly once..."

    It's simply a Phototropic BiCore driving two small motors. -- a 74HCT240 chip with no motor driver. See the Schematic below.

  • It is powered with two 3.3F Goldcaps. They can be charged in a few seconds. When they are charged, MAXIBUg gets "afraid" of light, and wanders of to go to play "in the dark". After a while, about 20 seconds (depending on the current used by the two motors ), the power has dropped, and it wants to "eat". It gets light attracted, and will turn and go to the light. When it gets there, it will recharge and still will be atrackted to the light until it reaches a trigger voltage , at which it gets "afraid"of the light again. This will go on all day until someone turns off the lightsource. While doing all this it also will backup when bumping into something.
  • Because of the "on-off" output of the first schmitt trigger, the inputs for the LDRs will switch. That's why it gets light atracted -light afraid. This also means that you cannot use IR diodes (like SHF205). You have to use LDRs !
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • The change in output is visualised with two red LEDs. When the LEDs are burning, the bot is "afraid" of light. They are mounted as eyes off the bot, that's why I used two off them. One LED will do also, but doesn't look nice !

  • These bots are powered by a Gold Cap and for a period of about one minute they move, always looking for the brightest lightspot, so in fact they will even follow a lightsource.
  • All these bots are powered by a 3,3F Gold Cap ( F= farad). You can charge them with a regulated power supply
  • the two 5 mm red LED's it is capable of following a light source.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • When ALI bumps into something it will go backward for a short time and then go forward in another direction, so they will find their way all alone.
  • The first one is a light seeker and the second one is a line follower. This version I like very much.
  • When you are making the line follower you need to place the small light bulb. The light seeker doesn't need it.
  • When bumbing into something it can also reverse for several seconds. The time of going reverse can be changed. I've used 2M2 and 3,3 uF, this will give a reverse time of about 5 seconds
  • For the LED’s you can almost use any type or color, I used red ones 5 mm.
  • When you "power on" Bully it will first go backwards for some time. After a few seconds it seems that it doesn’t know what to do, it looks like it’s shivering. Then it starts of going to the brightest lightspot it can see, first slowly and then like "in a hurry". When it reaches the lightspot it makes turns which make it look like it’s happy! In the time doing all this stuff, each bump into a obstacle makes it move backwards for a few seconds. The time doing this can be changed with the 10 uF elco. Smaller means less seconds and bigger means reversing for more seconds.
