    Default CatBot: The lazy mans cat toy

    I bought a laser pointer for the cat, being the laziest way to play with your cat. I wondered if she would like it... Well she was a fiend! constantly pawing at the laser pointer to play with her.

    So I made the laziest cat toy even lazier.

    Brilliant. I knew there was a role for an arduino in out smarting the cat.

    You are a genius. Perhaps an evil genius, but only to cats.

    Put this thing in a box and you'll sell at least one to my sister. Maybe millions to other people's sisters too.

    The thing is is you don't really have to play with your cat. They are fine without you as long as you feed them and take care of their litter box

    Honus, I never thought to do that. I'm not sure why I didn't, but it needs to be done.

    Hey I am teaching an embedded security class this semester, which is really just an excuse to play with Arduinos. You need to guest lecture and show off your amazing builds. Send me an email and we can work out the details! joe at soulrun

    Make sure you get a web cam on that cat too. :)

    Cool- will do! I have a fun microcontroller bike oriented project I've been working on that I need to show you.
