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!

New Yellow Treads

Want a bumble-bee look to your robot tank? Intersperse our new GMT-Yellow treads into the link chain! You should even be able to use a yellow link as a opto-reflector in a wheel (err...tread?) encoder circuit. ALSO, we're the only place in North America you can get these new yellow tread links!
