Solarbotics Interview in Canada Computes

Yes, it's true. After years of working our fingers to the bone inserting jumper wires on breadboards to make unusually robust controllers for robots out of discrete & logic chip elements, Solarbotics has seen the light! We've put on our eye-patch, hoisted the jolly-roger, and swung along-side to board the HMS HVWTech.com ! That's right […]
