Week 9: Seasonally Affected bot

This device is actually the first step in a prototype for a solar powered protest laser.

The solar panel powers an Arduino Uno which is connected to two 5mW laser diodes. Right now the program simply alternates between turning the two diodes on and off in 10 second intervals. This circuit takes about .457W to run the current program.

Below is a diagram illustrating how these lasers can be paired with concave lenses and image slides to create a projection.
