ROBO Lantern

ok, so my wife wanted a scary halloween prop for "halloween town" and i had a picaxe 28x laying around. so i figured id try building something that popped out of the pumpkin and screamed at you. i forgot to take step by step pics, but i will when i rebuild it. i used the voice module from radio shack but couldnt get it to run off the picaxe, so it is its own seperate unit inside the pumpkin. the pumpkin is a fake one made for carving, so it shouldnt rot around the electronics. it uses a Parallax PIR sensor from radio shack to trigger the program when something in front of it moves. this is definatly a "working prototype. the next one will be much cleaner and , involve 5 pounds of hot glue  and im gonna use a picaxe 08 so the brain wont take up so much room. right now its like a semi truck being used to tow a lawn mower.
