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.
New addition to SB Krew, secret fun stuf...

Well, last week I told you that I'd have (and I quote) "something more exciting and substantial for you." So I'd like to take this opportunity (on behalf of the other fine folks at Solarbotics) to welcome the newest addition to the team, Tom! He'll be heading up purchasing and finding neat new toys to bring you.
This'd be the part where we enlighten you as to the awesome things he's found that we'll be making available soon. But instead I've been advised by powers-that-be that this information is classified and secret. But that's okay - you can definitely tell it's going to be fantastically wondrous by the ultra-exciting words 'classified' and 'secret' (not to mention the fact that they're even italicized). But you want something a tad bit more... Tangible, eh? Well, here you go. It's an itty-bitty cropped image with no context or specific information, and we dare you to unravel our plans for wold domination from this one bit of bendy metal.

Solar Eclipse at SB
Today August 21, 2017, we were treated to about 80% solar eclipse. In spite of the smoke, the weather cooperated so we couldn't miss this event. Pinhole projector boxes were made out of cereal and shipping boxes: Fancy ones were mounted onto a tripod, and a phone camera recording a time lapse video was taped to […]
