Becos eyes prototype
22|06|07 Filed in: Designertoys
Becos eyes are made of three LEDs. The 10mm and 3mm LEDs are animated to fit the individual programs Beco will run. The 5mm LED is an IR emitter which Beco use to avoid bumping into obstacles. The black lower half of the eye contains the IR receiver which detects the bounced infrared light. This part of the eye will later be covered with a semitransparent fabric.
