Animation with Arduino

Animated Jumping Grasshopper!

I have been thinking a lot about how animals, dinosaurs, people, and bugs move.  In particular, I wanted to find out how a grasshopper jumps, so I found a great slow motion video that shows just that.  I included a clip of it here in my project video:
