The eye sensor works perfectly. It gives the rover that quality of having eyes to make it more animal like.



Cons

A quick look at the back of these is a clue as to why they're garbage. I have a working hcsr04 i was testing with that worked fine, and when i swapped each one of these in they didn't work.
