Solar botics
February 28, 2014

Other than the new goodies, we have one more thing to announce: Solarbotics, as an official MakeFashion partner, has been supporting local and international designers by consulting, providing materials, tech support and snacks. One of the projects we have been working at is Pumping Fashion Lit (by Dee Fontans and Eric Willis). It is featured in the Avenue Magazine preview of the upcoming show. So tomorrow, March 1 we are going to be at MakeFashion Gala to reap the fruits of our labour and hopefully see some neat wearable stuff.

Strange set of Atmel '328 ICs...

The Atmel ATMega328 is the power behind the Arduino/Freeduino/*duino, and we have to set up a programming system to burn the venerable Arduino Bootloader into these chips. We normally use an AVR STK500 in HVSP (high voltage serial programming) mode, […]
