Cantin took to his workshop. He had to scrap his first design entirely when a metal tube attaching a servo-motor to a LEGO brick proved too flimsy (it died during initial testing).

It uses two servo motors for testing, each driven by the Arduino which is logging the count on an SD card. One of the two white LEGO parts has been screwed onto an arm of the upper servo.

The Lego model uses an Arduino to move the rods up and down (using a servo) and controls the simulated Cherenkov radiation (courtesy of blue LEDs).

The LEGO set 21305: Maze is a great analogue game that you can build, and it has been improved upon with an Arduino. Maker Tim Bush has connected the completed set to a pair of motors (which are ...
