I use the character Boji from "Ranking of Kings" to make this small installation. When the user types a different number such as "5" or " 175", the Boji's look will change.

Servo myServo;

void setup() {

  // attaches the servo on the A3 pin to the servo object
  myServo.attach( A3 );

   //Register our Particle to control the servo
   Particle.function("servo", servoControl);

  // Keep a cloud variable for the current position

It is challenging to combine two mouths into one circle. I have experimented several times to match the eyes with two mouths.

It is important to match the gesture and motor movement types to make the installation vivid.
