8646 Wed, 29 Dec 1999 11:26:29 -0800 (PST) [alt-beam] Re: Chirpping bots beam@sgiblab.sgi.com Max Inggal First off they're called Pummers not Plummers!
Pummers were made by Mr. T a while back. All they do
is sit in the sun and charge all day and at night turn
on a little LED or something for a good 4 hours. Some
of the ones I got instead of a LED I put an oscillator
circuit connected to a speaker so at night it sounds
like a cricket. A lot more pleasing to hear a
chirp...chirp...chirp... than a annoying
bzzzzzzzzzzz... all night. They do look just like a
cricket only a little bigger. My window probes are
little bots made from vending machine bubbbles, paper
clips, and suction cups. They cling to my window and
twirl little attenna like dishes. They are very easy
to make and cheap. I can make the frame for one in
like 10 min, and only costing arond $1US.

Photodiodes and tactic sensors. But the schem looks
like it should work. Good Luck!!
