Tyree (he wears a tie and he has tires) actually smiles after he bumps into something (see video). Using an Arduino motor shield, he detects obstacles using the “more current into the motor means something is in the way” principle. Tyree started out as a sketch and morphed into a real object thanks to Autodesk’s
