We've been busy little elves at Solarbotics. New to our product listing is a fair number of parts and ICs that have been requested of us. Like what? Wellll...: You always need new chips. Especially when somebody on the BEAM list has made something cool: LM324 Op-amp (happy now, Bruce?) LM393 Dual comparator LM386 Audio […]
Egg-cellent Art
Dave Hrynkiw
September 26, 2008
ArtBots 2008 was held on September 19-21 in the Science Gallery at the Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. The show featured 15 works of art by 16 artists from 9 countries. Solarbotics Ltd was proud to provide several demo robots to the Science Gallery to use during ArtBots for their “hands-on” robot display.
One of the artists at the show was Christopher Kaczmarek with his piece “Untitled”. Other then its raw aesthetics, which is quite striking, it also uses the Solarbotics SCC3766 Solar Cell and GM10 Gear Motor (which really...how could that NOT increase its awsomishisness). Check out the video and crank up the volume to listen to the tappity-tapping of a solar powered egg shell anthem.

Another New Gearmotor - The GM19!
Here's a funky motor for you - the GM19! Slightly larger than the other metal gearhead series (GM11-14), and with a larger motor, this 35:1 beasty looks like a good contender for building mini-sumos or other small, speed-hungry robots! But be warned: It is a bit strange. The gearhead is mounted askew to the motor, […]
