Prop Dropper from Nuts and Volts Magazine, October 2009

How fun would it be to drop a Spooky Spider, a Ghoulish Ghost or a Scary Skeleton right out of thin air above unsuspecting Trick Or Treaters?
The Prop Dropper is a quick and dirty Halloween project you can probably put together in a single night with just a small microcontroller, a couple of servo motors and a few bits and pieces from the ole' junk box.

The Prop Dropper is designed to detect the presence of a person, rapid-deploy a small prop, display it for a moment, then wind it back up out of view, ready for its next victim!
