We were pleased to see the Kickstarter for Ringo, the Photopopper-ish but much smarter version of our own ~17 year old design robot kit. The video showcases some pretty cool behaviors, and is easily one of those projects where we think "Jee, why didn't we do that?"
New Product: Arduino WiFi Shield and Dis...
Solar botics
October 12, 2012
The lonely product in the long-time-ago previous product post has filed a complaint to the INPDL (International New Product Defendant League) against having to represent the Friday Product Post by itself for an entire month. We therefore had to comply by bringing in some new stock to switch out. So here's an Arduino WiFi Shield in the company of five strikingly similar-looking MaxSonar distance sensors. Be careful not to confuse them, they might get really upset.

Here, now all our venerable products are content that you gave them your undivided and thorough attention, and no doubt properly inspected their descriptions. All that is left to do is to memorize all their first, last and middle names (and the SKUs of course) to address them properly in order to make them completely happy. Then you can go enjoy the sun, or whatever meteorological conditions you are currently in. Meeting dismissed!
