The following instructions detail how to build a Servocore walker. A Servocore walker differs from a regular walker by utilizing the internal electronics in unmodified servos, which give position feedback from the motor in the servo. This position feedback allows for very long stride lengths without the use of mechanical stops or springs.
More Temperate Sensors

Alrighty folks, here you have it. We've just doubled the amount of items in our temperature sensor category by adding the following:
- Temperature Probe
- Phidgets Precision Temperature Sensor
- Sensirion Temp/Humidity Sensor
- Thermocouple Kit DS2760
- DS18B20+ Temperature Sensor
- TMP36 Temperature Sensor
And that pretty much rounds out all the temperature sensors we have planned to make available. Stay tuned - there are still plenty of other types of sensors we'll be adding in the near future.
If you've been having a slow, boring weekend this might catch your interest: Dave just uploaded a fistful of images for Mark Tilden's Spider. Go to the Walkers/Snakes set to check it out!

The Many Faces of SAFE
The SAFE (Solarbotics Arduino Freeduino Enclosure) is a marvelous contraption of laser-cut acrylic that makes a complete enclosure for your Arduino project. It gives you a protective shell with enough room for a basic shield, with knock-outs for power and USB connection. It even has a power switch. The big problem with Arduinos and Freeduinos, […]
Wednesday Cool Links: Laser Experiments,...
Look! Bird (-shaped bullets) made holes in bird... feathers! Well, not quite, although that would have been awesome too. Actually we were doing some nitrogen-assisted laser tests on various regular, i.e. boring materials, such as plywood and mat board. Then I came across some feathers and here's what it turned out to be: Now that […]
