"Project Monday"? What the heck is that?
We're giving our news postin' habits a bit of an overhaul. Here's the plan: instead of one massive newspost once a week, we're going to break things up a bit. Monday's we'll post a cool project or tutorial that might be fun to try. Wednesdays, we'll post some of the awesome links that we've bit passing around the office. And finally, as to preserve some sense of sanity, we'll keep posting our latest product releases every Friday. And if you want to contribute... Let us know! We're especially interested in showing off whatever neat projects we can, so feel free to write us with some images or links or description-type-stuff so that we can show off your projects to the world.
So let's take this 'Project Monday' thing for a spin, shall we?
Those crafty people at Make just posted this really cool BEAM project for basic solar rollers and solar symets:
We love to see BEAM projects getting some lovin' from time to time - that's where we have our proud roots. There's something really elegant about such simple designs that don't require any fancy brains and are quite content to putter around in the sunlight. We carry most of the parts needed for this project, from the solar cell to the cassette mechanism and flashing LED. Make Magazine actually ran similar projects waaaay back in Volume 6. The circuits are a little bit different than this project, but we also have kits available that will set you up with what you need to make your own solar roller and trimet.
Happy Monday, everyone! Er, if such a thing exists...

We're a Canadian Company, but the impact of the over-zealously worded American Legislation H.R.3261 "Stop Online Piracy Act" and S.968 "PROTECT IP" will affect foreign Internet sites. Being a central backbone to the Internet, the USA has an uncomfortably large influence on the rest of the English-speaking web, and so it's of our Canadian interest […]
It's been a bit long in the coming, but it's finally here: The Sumovore PICAXE Brainboard for the Solarbotics Sumovore! One of the biggest tripping points we see from going from the pure digital/analog realm of BEAM to microcontrollers is learning the ins-and-outs of microcontrollers. The PICAXE nicely fills this void by offering a programming […]
Well, Solarbotics went to "Neeewwww Yorrrrk City" to the Toy Fair, and met up with Mark Tilden. He was kind enough to give us an exclusive interview / demonstration of the production-level version of the Robosapien. See the four videos at solarbotics.net! Update: The link got slashdotted, so we're pretty heavy on our bandwidth bills […]
