Boy, there's work to do on new websites. Link checking, spell checking, image links - all sorts of crap that doesn't have anything to do directly with robots! Even so, we've been able to put up a few new images of Mark Tilden's "Projectorbots" on the Photovores page. Yuck. Must do something about how hard […]
GM15 Dual-Deal; Microcontrollers!
Dave Hrynkiw
June 8, 2004
Ok, ok - we've been getting requests (no; more like demands) that we offer a bit of a deal for getting the GM15's in pairs.
Alright then. How does $30USD or $40Cdn a pair strike you? Ok, now let's see some nano-sumo robots!
"Wot's this? A microcontroller at Solarbotics??" Yup. The Atmel ATMega8L is part of our Sumovore Atmel Brainboard, and it's simply a really solid microcontroller with an excellent (free) open-source C++ programming environment. Of course, you won't see us running a solaroller with one of these, but this microcontroller is finding uses at Solarbotics.
Embrace the power of the Dark side, Luke...

Western Canadian Robot Games 2005!

Especially since Solarbotics' own Grant McKee won advanced minisumo with "Ender's Wraith", and although he also placed 2nd with "S.S. Solo" (but wasn't legally able to win 2 spots), the third place bump up went to...me! Dave Hrynkiw, with 2Strong2Bad! Besides the […]
No, it isn't $30...
Sorry about that. The last ad for the ARDX Experimenter's Kit for Arduino? Wrong. Our graphics designer, Chris (yes, I'll give credit where credit is due) used an old template for our latest Servo Advertisement, and didn't change the price. No, it's not $30 - it's still $84.95USD. And continuing the blame-game, I gave him […]
Solarbotics at MakerShed
Yeah, you got it: at the Bay Area Maker Faire, on May 17 and 18, 2014. With some exciting new stuff. It requires sun, balls and mice. And no, it is not a solar-powered feline. It is much better. (Note: mice mention was only for confusion purposes, I confess). In any case, whatever it is, […]
