Those blinking red "eyes" looks funny. By the way how did you make ultra sonic sensors to blink?

I programmed the eyes with LeJOS in Java.
There is a method for the Ultrasonic sensor for switching the lights on or off.

See the line 40 and 57 in the following code: https://github.com/abaumgart/HalloweenEyes/blob/master/src/halloween/Eye.java

Thank you for explanation. I thought you found some way how to do it in original software from LEGO...

Nice way of using mindstorms!

It is possible with the Lego software - by putting the ultrasonic sensor into listening mode, though it's not possible to control it completely, it only makes it blink.

Great use of the EV3 parts.
