All,
 
 
Here is a YouTube link for video I took of bristlebots at last two  RBNOs 
built by Ed Paradis and Jeff Koenig.

Glenn, Oops, missed videoing your bot.
 
OK, it took me longer to get this post together than the time everyone has  
spend building their bristlebots - geeze.
 
Wow- I see lots of related videos...

Jeff,

Very nice on 7002.
I like the leaded TO-92 case for this application. 
I can see soldering the leads directly to the tiny. Making like a 3D  
electronic sculpture.
Rickle Bickle recommended this part and gave me some SOT-23 versions some  
time back.
 
Nice being a FET no resistor needed on Gate.
 
Pretty close on supply voltage on gate max threshold voltage -- maybe OK  
there eh?
 
Maybe one of those new 14 Pin Tinys would be better suited so that could  run 
a programming header without
having to share pins?
 
Nice too that CDS cells can do direct connect to analog input pins using  
chip internal pullups for doing photovore (sp?) 
 
Now if you can get differential motor drive to steer the beastie.
