We have a pretty darn big announcement for you today: we're now distributing Open Beam! It's a new handy-dandy construction system that got its start from Kickstarter, and is gaining a lot of immediate support. Right now, we're stocking all the items except for the kits, which we'll probably bring onboard in the near future. […]
Closed for Thanksgiving (Monday October ...

October 11, 2014
Being in Canada, October is practically the doorstep of winter. Some places get a full three months of autumn, but for us it's one big multicolored blur before everything gets covered in white. Sure, that means that winter takes up half the year. But do you know what it also means? Thanksgiving comes almost a month earlier than it does for our Yankee pals to the south.
So how do we express how much it means to us that this holiday comes so soon? We take a day off, of course. That's right, Solarbotics will be closed on Monday, October 13th, 2014 so that we can celebrate our gratitude for having an early Thanksgiving.
That's right. This Thanksgiving, we're thankful for Thanksgiving. We're hoping this will cause a continuous feedback loop of statutory holidays, but we'll let you know how it goes.

This year, we've moved the site to 100% ASP (yes, I hear the "boos" from the Linux camp over in Minnesota), which […]
Western Canadian Robot Games 2005!
Well, we had a fun time at this year's Western Canadian Robot Games! Especially since Solarbotics' own Grant McKee won advanced minisumo with "Ender's Wraith", and although he also placed 2nd with "S.S. Solo" (but wasn't legally able to win 2 spots), the third place bump up went to...me! Dave Hrynkiw, with 2Strong2Bad! Besides the […]
