Well, 50 years ago today, the Regency TR-1 transistor radio was unleashed on the masses. As the first transistor-based radio on the market, it made a splash. And here we are, 50 years later, making robots out of the same technology. Regenchy TR-1, Solarbotics salutes you!
Arduino Shields

August 28, 2009
As we all know, the 'A' in 'August' stands for 'Arduino'. So it's with great sorrow that this will be our last mega Arduino-centric update. We'll still be adding to our selection, but not in as massive amounts. The Arduino Components category is still rather sparse, so hopefully that'll see some love soon. But in the mean time, this week we're filling in the Arduino Shields category with eleven new items:
- Adafruit Motor/Stepper/Servo Shield
- Adafruit Wave Shield (temporarily out of stock)
- Adafruit Ethernet Shield Kit
- Arduino Protoshield
- TellyMate
- Arduino Ethernet Shield
- Arduino XBee Shield Empty
- Arduino Shield - MEGA Proto PCB
- Arduino Shield - MEGA Proto Kit
- Arduino Shield - Motor Driver Kit
- Arduino Shield Prototyping Kit
Aside from that, the 17 x 10 Mini Breadboard is now back in stock. And as August comes to an end, it looks like the summer is rapidly running out of stock too. We hope everyone managed to snag some nice weather while it lasted! NOW BRING ON THE SNOW!

Frogbots! Solar-powered, at that!
I missed the full segment of this story last weeks on "Discovery Channel's @discovery.ca" program, but fortunately, the've put the segment online at their website. I seems that JPL (Jet Propulsion Laboratories - NASA essentially) is working on a solar-powered, single-footed robot frog. This seems like a GREAT idea for extra-terrestrial planet-surface locomotion. Check out […]
