Here at Solarbotics, we like to eat well. So, unfortunately after leaving a forgotten sausage roll in the microwave for several days we must search for a means of disposal and/or obvious prank to pull. Our immediate reaction was to place the rather stale pastry in the mouth of our office chimp, Herb. But now […]
Solarbotics workshop at the Robothon
Dave Hrynkiw
August 26, 2004
Solarbotics will be back at the Seattle Robothon September 24 and 25, hosting a workshop building our Sumovore mini-sumo robot kit, and a beta kit - the Herbie Photovore!
We had a lot of fun doing it last year, and many builders went on to compete the next day in the competition. And for the robot-builder amateur, we're introducing a beta kit of our upcoming "Herbie" photovore kit, which is a simple, speedy, battery-powered light-seeking robot guaranteed to please!
We're planning on only 20 seats, so pre-register sooner than later, and we'll contact you with full details! Even if you don't want to attend the workshop, come out to the Robothon - it's free, and a great event.

But the name seems rather vague and underwhelming. And thus I began my quest to find the true meaning of Heritage Day. So as any […]
Sumovore Brainboard - the PICAXE!
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 […]
