With the departure of our two interns, we're finding that we miss them. Damn them and their desire to complete their education...

Since they left, we're finding we have too many projects and not enough hands to get them done. Got  some/any of the following qualifications?

  • Practical experience with sensors
  • Experience with 8-bit embedded computing (AVR, PIC 12/16F series).
  • PCB CAD experience (we use Altium Summer '09)
  • Robot-building skills
  • Grok open-source hardware, MAKE and Arduino
  • Live in/near Calgary, Alberta Canada?

You have to have some practical bench skills. I.e.: Can you program a "hello world" LED blinker onto a 12F675 at our workbench?

Drop us a line as jobs@solarbotics.com

Wednesday Links: Flashlights, Lanternbot...

Spring this year seems to be short on sunshine. To compensate for that, today's post is full of shiny things. And butterflies. Butterflies are always a good addition. Tilt Beam Flashlight Cute build, a diffuser of some sort would be a nice addition though, unless used for interrogation purposes. (by [Zach DeBord], via Hackaday) Soft […]

Harold's "Tank"

Harold Ilano built this SW2.2 / VBug inspired 5 motor walker named "Tank", and just recently announced it on the BEAM mailing list. It's a very effective and quick device - nicely done, and well worth a look-see. It still impresses me what we can do without a microcontroller...
