In this video, we’re going to be making a set of wirelessly controlled animatronic eyes. I’ve been wanting to do this project for a while, so when Quantum Integration launched their new Motor & Servo Driver board, this project immediately came to mind.
To enter the Quantum Integration giveaway, subscribe to my channel, like the video and leave a comment suggesting a tutorial or project for a future video. The winner will be chosen on the 27th of April, their comment will be pinned and the Starter Bundle, DIY Boards Set & Component Kit will be sent to them. The giveaway is open to participants in North America, the UK, the EU and Australia.
