The creature in a box uses an Arduino to control all the peripherals. This includes an IMU and photocell as inputs and DC/vibration/servo motors and LEDs as outputs. The inputs are used to determine the sequence that the program is in. There are five sequences: bright silent, bright loud, initial darkness, creature emerging, and distressed. When it’s bright it will switch between silent and loud continuously. When it’s dark it will wait for a bit and then emerge. If movement is detected it will be distressed and make loud sounds. The sounds are created using the DC and vibration motors.
