IGNORE!!! READ MY OTHER POST THIS IS A STUPID QUESTION

[Xyver]

I've made my 50$ robot, and I am now trying to program it.  I've been messing around with the light sensors I made and Arduino and servos and such, and i know how to make it that a different amount of light will turn the servo at different speeds.  The problem is, I don't think its sensitive enough.  It goes one speed in the light, but to make it slow down/stop, I have to entirely cover the sensor in my hand.  

How can I make it more sensitive?

Before I modified the servo i tested the same thing, and by waving the sensor around the motor would twitch to different positions. So it does work, unless I screwed up on the modifying.

Another thing, I was reading through this post http://www.societyofrobots.com/robotforum/index.php?topic=2724.0 and saw the numbers    23/.992*(time in milliseconds) = number of cycles .  Where does the 23 and the .992 come from???  Would it be different for an Arduino?

I've just been messing about with the practice codes on the Arduino website for potentiometers controlling servos.  Here it is:

// Controlling a servo position using a potentiometer (variable resistor)
// by Michal Rinott <http://people.interaction-ivrea.it/m.rinott>

#include <Servo.h>

Servo myservo;  // create servo object to control a servo

int potpin = 0;  // analog pin used to connect the potentiometer
int val;    // variable to read the value from the analog pin

void setup()
{
  myservo.attach(9);  // attaches the servo on pin 9 to the servo object
}

void loop()
{
  val = analogRead(potpin);            // reads the value of the potentiometer (value between 0 and 1023)
  val = map(val, 0, 1023, 0, 179);     // scale it to use it with the servo (value between 0 and 180)
  myservo.write(val);                  // sets the servo position according to the scaled value
  delay(1.5);                           // waits for the servo to get there
}

You will have to mess around with the values. The example arduino code assumes that the input sensor will range from 0 to 5 volts, however the light sensors probably output a range smaller than that. In the map() method, increase the value of the 0 and decrease the value of the 1023 to shorten the range.
