So there's one link today that makes my artistic soul happy - it is the laser-controlled Etch A Sketch. Although I never owned an Etch A Sketch (some smarty pants might say right here that in Russia we used rusty nails to draw on cardboard instead), but the idea to draw with a laser beam […]
New Product Friday: GSM Shield, Conducti...
Solar botics
October 18, 2013
Well today we are presenting things! Here's how they work. GSM shield comes supplied with a sticker that you can draw a little arrow on it, and then you mount the shield on a stick, and it will show the direction of where you have to go. To set the direction whisper your exact latitude and longitude into the inputs somewhere. And yeah. Since this is a shield, you will need an Arduino, don’t forget that. Without it you will have to yell your coordinates really loud. Arduino helps it to hear. Oh. I confused the whole thing with GPS, whoops. Anyways, I'm pretty sure it will do whatever you tell it to do. It has a special slave matrix built in.

Arduino GSM Shield (integrated antenna) $97.99 Get your Arduino project talking across a cell network with the GSM shield. |
 |
360 Yard Spool of Conductive Thread $39.95 It ain't wire - it's stainless steel THREAD, ideal for low power and signals routing. |
 |
DC Barrel Jack Adapter - Breadboard Compatible $0.95 Power that breadboard simply with this DC barrel jack. |
Then we have conductive thread, you can conduct a choir by tying a few conductor batons to your wrists. So now whatever motion you will do with your hands will produce a musical phrase. And the choir will follow you. Even to the washroom. And last but not least we have barrel jack adapter. It’s a little chunk of plastic you stick up your nose, to adapt it to barrels. And jacks.

New Hakko Iron & SMD LoL Shields
I wasn't very interested when the new Hakko FX-888 soldering iron showed up, but as I opened it and explored more, I got to thinking "Dang - this is a nice iron...". It's small, heavy, made-o'-metal, and of Hakko quality. And it's better than the old 936 it replaces, in practically every regard. And it […]
Canadian Thanksgiving, eh?
Sorry, our office is closed Monday, October 11 for Canadian Thanksgiving. Being further north, we have to eat our turkeys sooner. If we don't do it now and celebrate it with our American cousins next month, the turkeys freeze to the tundra, and we have to suck on Turkeysicles. Ick. We'll be back to work […]
Phones are Up
Well, we've found the ringleaders in this little impromptu telecommunications insurrection and took them out back, where we switched from our standard 'beat with a metaphorical hammer' to 'beat with an real hammer'. Which worked so well, actually, that our phones are now back up and behaving themselves. We can now take calls without any […]
