I really like your project. I'm trying to do the same system but a question came to me. Don't you need to "calibrate" the sensors ? Or is it pointless with calcul of average value ? Thx for sharing a such good project !

The best part is that it is responding fast, and relatively simple. If my budget permits I shall do this one, after I finish a few smaller projects. Otherwise, it will be in my long term goal projects. Well done.

I was wondering how long it took you to finish this project?

Kind of hard to follow... It would be nice to have an electrical diagram of some kind to be sure you are hooking it up right.

Hello! I am very interested in your project since it is responsive and simple. My problem is that Im doing it lately and the servos arent responding properly. It can turn left and right but dont move ups and down. And sometimes it shakes when the light strikes the LDR's can you please me to figure out the mistake Ive done? Thanks!

This is a really nice project. Back in about 1962 I was at a science fair in Louisiana and a guy had an automated system for about the same purpose. That system was much messier than the modern one, because it used tubes, etc. It's wonderful how much power modern electronics gives us.
