Building a Phototropic Servo Controller 
Modeling & Control, Fall 2012

The aim of this project was to build a circuit capable of producing a Pulse-Width Modulated (PWM) Signal. This signal would then be used to control a hobby servo to turn to the left, to the right or remain centered. Ultimately, this circuit would be used in a toy that would respond to light. Whivhever direction had brighter light would be the direction to which the toy would turn.
