Bender with PIR sensor

thingiverse

We upgrade the Bender by embedding a PIR (Passive Infra Red) Sensor within its belly, paired with an Arduino nano to trigger eye flashes when motion is detected in front of it. Visit Amazon at https://www.amazon.com/s?k=pir+sensor+arduino&ref=nb_sb_noss_1 for a suitable PIR sensor and Arduino nano. For LED lights, check out Gearbest at https://www.gearbest.com/led-light-bulbs/pp_625950.html. A schematic illustrating the connection between the PIR Sensor and LEDs can be found in accompanying images. The code for the Arduino is stored on Github here: https://github.com/renaudrenaud/benderpir/tree/master. To see the Bender in action, watch it blinking at https://youtu.be/gLy1qyILlII or https://youtu.be/I3-n-2ref5k.
