Sorry for the lack of posts lately. If you didn't already know, Solarbotics has been moving offices, and it's taken a surprising amount of effort to get everbody/thing moved and settled. Beyond that, I've found some time to websurf...just a bit! A GM15 linefollower? Neat!(Update!:)He's just posted a video of it going ~40cm/s (although he's […]
GM15 Dual-Deal; Microcontrollers!

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...

BEPApp 3 - SPSH3
With all the interest with Wilf's "Power Smart Head", we thought it'd be an ideal project to mount on our Bicore Experimenter's PCB. To make the project work, we're even stocking the 74HC240! Check it out under the "Special Projects" link, or click here.
Solarbotics has been operating for more than 25 years, bringing electronics know-how and supplies to both the electronics professional and hobbyist. We'll be happy to help you too!
