MAKE group member Leevonk has a great Instructable on franken-modding a Furby… he writes –

“I took control of a furby’s body using a PIC16F877 microcomputer. Videos on last step.

The furby’s in-built sensors and actuators:

light sensor,
IR sensor,
IR transmitter,
tongue touch sensor,
belly touch sensor,
microphone,
speaker.

The furby’s main (and only) motor was dead, so I added other motors.”Link.
