         ShadowBot is a small monster that hides in the shadows of the night, and if it detects a sign of light, it looks for another darker place to hide. It uses Tamiya double gearbox, but I replaced the normal 5V motors with low current 12V motors.   Tow micro servos are used, one to open and close the mouth and the other one to move the head right and left.   The motor drive is an L298N chip and the brain is an Arduino Duemilanove.
