The ElePHPant gadget is based on the PHP ElePHPant. It is a plastic ElePHPant-shaped casing containing an Arduino microcontroller board, some sensors and actuators. It is currently in the planning stage.

The ElePHPant gadget will be developed in coorporation with PHPBenelux. The design, hardware and software will be published under the Creative Commons License.

Please contact us if you want to join this project. We will appreciate it very much.

Het principe achter de scanner is vrij simpel. Je neemt twee servo motortjes, een voor de x en een voor de y-as, en maakt hiermee een pan/tilt module.Daarna neem je een sharp afstandsensor en die bevestig je aan het pan/tiltding. Het volledige apparaat kost ongeveer 60 euro, inclusief servo’s, sensoren en microcontroller.
