The Mighty Mouse in Action

Petting the mouse will cause the tail to wag

But if you pet it too close to the eyes, it will tire of you and return to its home (a make-shift hole in the wall.)

 

If you want to use your computer, wake up the mouse by shining a light into the house. Two light sensors on the front of the robot will detect the light and turn the motors on, bringing the mouse back out to the mouse pad so you can use it.
