Didel Gears, LilyPad

Alriiiight. This week we've got a small handful of new plastic pinions (not to be confused with plastic onions) from Didel. These little units are great for sliding onto pager motors and mating to other gears.

And, as promised last week, we've got more Arduino-type-stuff for you to check out. These week we've populated the LilyPad category with eight items. As worded by the official description, "LilyPad is a wearable technology developed by Leah Buechley and cooperatively designed by Leah and SparkFun. Each LilyPad was creatively designed to have large connecting pads to allow them to be sewn into clothing. Various input, output, power, and sensor boards are available. They're even washable!". Neat stuff! Check out our selection below:LilyPad Arduino Main Board

Well, that about sums it up for another week. I'd just like to take this opportunity on behalf of all the staff at Solarbotics to bid farewell to Mary. She's been a fantastic getter-of-things-done (official title: Office Elf, Third Class (Promotion Pending)) and a joy to work with. We wish her all the best with that education/school thing that seems to be all the rage with kids these days. Good luck Mary, you'll be missed!

Solarbotics looking for fun people

...oh, and they also should want to work with us. We have a few positions open we want to fill with people that have a good sense of humour, have some geek qualities, and can tell the difference between a diode and resistor (or sincerely want to learn!) Here are the types of people we're […]

Closed on Monday August 6th

That's it. We've had enough. The weather is just too darn nice outside. So nice, in fact, that we quit. That's right, when Monday rolls around no one is even going to bother coming into the office. You heard us - we'll be closed on Monday, August the 6th. Go ahead and email and leave […]
