New Servo-liciousness
Dave Hrynkiw
December 9, 2008
For far too long we've toiled under the merciless grip of the Gear Motor. But no more! For behold, there appears a trio of defiant servos to overthrow the tyrannical rule!
*cough*
But seriously forks, we have three new units available from Grand-Wing Servo. The 22140 GWS Modified Servo is a useful continuous rotation, full-sized unit. There's also the 22150 Sub Micro Servo - NARO HP BB and 22160 Pico Servo - PICO+ BB, which both feature a ball-bearing supported output shaft and Futaba connector. What's really impressive about these last two units, though, is their size. They are tiny, measuring less than 23x12x22mm. Check 'em out yourself for pictures, stats and dimensions.
Long live the servo!

Circuit: L293D Mini-Sumo
This circuit is used to create a simple "edgebot" sumo robot. Being an edgebot refers that it will repeat the same backup/turn/go forward action when it's single edge sensor detects the edge of the ring. This version of the circuit is quite simple, and always turns the same way.
Closed Monday for the holiday
Not sure what holiday it is, but my calendar says that nobody will be in on Monday "for the holiday". We'll be back to work Tuesday morning, promise!
May issue of Discover Magazine
Mr. Tilden informs me that his experiments with 40 B.I.O.Bugs in the desert of Whitesands, New Mexico will be detailed in the May issue of Discover Magazine. I've seen some of his personal pics of the experiment, and it is indeed impressive photography. Keep an eye out for this issue!
