“…after doing a looooooot of debugging…” – You’ll probably hate me for mentioning the arduino, but it takes around 5minutes to code a simple servo rotator since the library for controlling servos is embedded. Or one minute with the example code :3

Attach reflector tape to your cat and mod the laser with that diode so it knows when your cat gets the laser and moves right away!

Naming your cat after a fictional rat is awesome.

@johnfranks This …
@johnfranks This seems to be a normal class 2 laser pointer. This should be absolutely harmless for the eyes of the cat if it doesn’t stare into it for seconds and cats normally don’t stare into a laser beam for seconds.
But this toy proably won’t work with my cat, because he would pull out the cables.
But maybe I will just buy a cheap robot and attach a laser pointer to it.

i think they believe it’s a bug, that’s why they try and catch it.

pikachu would probably prefer you add some blanking so he/she doesn’t get his/her eye poked out by the laser. plus, i can keep my dogs’ interested a lot longer if they think they caught the laser!
