Objective:
-
Using the Electric Imp, create a rig to ‘tweet’ whenever activity is sensed on a cat door (twitter handle is @OurCatDoor).
-
Create a real time graph of the activity on sen.se for public view (see: http://open.sen.se/sensemeters/tab/3230/?preview=on).
In the end, everything worked out wonderful. See the full build page at:

I have just integrated a robotic hand to the project. When a cat moves through the cat door and triggers the Imp to tweet, it sometimes will send a ‘tweet’ to make a robotic hand on my desk perform on of several gestures (anyone can ‘tweet’ to make the hand gesture). Build page with source, etc at:

Thanks for checking out my build and thanks for the help from the forum!
