Steve and special guest Chris Trees continue to tweak the code from the Adafruit tutorial that elegantly solved this solution by creating a new Sweeper class that can be instanced. They add the ability to randomize the minimum and maximum rotation values within a specified range. This code is being developed to meet the needs of the Puppet Mover they are creating. The Puppet Mover is needed to drive the performance of animatronic characters in the peanut gallery of a daytime court show spoof Grasshorse has been developing called Puppet Justice. This live stream ends accidentally, and is resumed in Robot Chores 4.
The Arduino code generated from this stream.

Robot Chores is a real time, live streamed series of videos created with the goal of developing an maker’s abilities. Steve offers insight and guidance into the coding, fabrication and programming of robotics through his undertaking of personal projects. This will hopefully help you learn more about robotics.

Want to go to animation school? Grasshorse helped write the curriculum for one of the most affordable 2 year animation programs at Southeastern Community College in West Burlington, Iowa. Steve sits on the advisory board for the program and SCC students regularly receive internships at Grasshorse. Grasshorse’s only financial benefit from SCC is in recruiting talented artists.
