Is there a plan for these? Here's an idea.</div><div><br></div><div>Idea 1: Basic motion activated light blinking</div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- low cost, low complexity</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Idea 2: Advanced motion </span>activated<span style="font-size: 12pt;"> light with response - like the ones where you can dance in front of and the move you move the more the light flashes.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12pt;">- higher, higher complexity, but more fun. Kids would love this!</span></div><div><br></div><div>We could fabricate a bracket to hold the lights and sensors , then hang it on the fence in the back or wall perhaps. In Option 1, just walking by would trigger the sensor and it would turn on and blink for 5 seconds. Option 2, turns on when you walk by, but if you wave your hands it blinks faster depending how much motion you create.</div><div><br></div><div>Powering - we could light these with LED's using 3 volts supplied by a battery. The battery can charged with a solar panel. Home depot selling solar powered motion activated lights. The sensors detect night/day so we might want to replace that with different sensor - perhaps something like a Pyroelectric Infrared PIR motion sensor.</div><div><br></div><div>Think about that one.</div><div><br></div><div>Tony</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><h1 style="margin: 0px; padding: 3px 0px 0px; font-size: 16px; line-height: 18px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); position: relative; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"><br></h1> </div></body> </html>
