Solarbotics just attended the MakeFashion Gala here in Calgary. It was a glowing show of glowing lights and wearable technology. Check out the photos in our Flickr stream.

New Product: Limerick Edition
Dave Hrynkiw
August 18, 2012
I've been wanting to post in limerick, and today I think I'll give it a kick. My co-workers think it's dumb, but I think it's kinda fun. And I'm sure it'll turn out quite slick.
In order to avoid some tough restrictions, I won't use limerick for product descriptions. It'd also make some people sick, and want to beat me with a stick. So I'll switch to normal verse to avoid any conniptions.
This week we have a fancy new video clip, that's a demo for a nifty new LED strip. It's wrapped around in a spool, and looks pretty darn cool. There's also links down below you shouldn't skip.

5V RGB LED Stripxels (1m) $35.00 Don't want to bother with trying to control 12V RGB strips with MOSFETs, well here you go: Solarbotics now carries 5V RGB LED Stripxels which has 32 RGB LEDs per meter that can be individually controlled and only requires a 5V source and TTL Clock & Data signals. How's that for ease of use? |

5V Flat-type RGB LED Stringxels (Strand of 20) $32.00 These are strands of SMART RGB LEDs Pixels, that have been used to create huge outdoor displays, and we've got some in smaller strands for your projects! |

5V Bullet-type RGB LED Stringxels (Strand of 40) $64.00 Want individually-controlled, color changing LED pixels that can be securely mounted in your application and have enough waterproofing to survive outdoors? The 40 strand RGB LED Stringxels are here to save the day! |

Switching Power Supply 5V @ 20A $20.00 When we talk about some of our power supplies & adapters being beefy or buff, sorry, we lied! This Switching Power supply is the Granddaddy of them all, it supplies 5V at 20Amps. |
This is all we got for this Friday afternoon, and we'll be off for the weekend quite soon. We hope you've quite enjoyed this (questionable) poetic employ, and that you don't get crushed by a meteorological balloon.

Yes, I know what you're thinking. "But you were just closed for, like, a bajillion days for Maker Faire!!" And yes, you'd be right. Except for the bajillion part - that's just getting carried away.

The 2004 Robotgames are over...
...and it was fun! Solarbotics was busy, showing off our new kits and gear motors, and shaking hands with a large number of our customers. Yeah, there weren't any "official" BEAM events, but we still had a good time running our Solarbotics-sponsored SolarSpeeder race, with the winner being 8(?) year old Devon Bateman (taking home […]
SB-FireFly Hacks: Round 1
Jeremie, our engineer and the brains behind the SB-FireFly, can't seem to put the thing down even though it's all done and released. He's been hard at work figuring out what it's capable of, and figures that the hardware and framework could be used for a Micro-TV-B-Gone broadcaster, IR code repeater, and even a tiny […]
