What's the biggest event for Solarbotics in the spring? Calgary Comic Expo on April 27-30! This year we are going to be there as part of the DIY Island (booth 110) at BMO Centre, Calgary Stampede Park. DIY Island is a booth space shared between Solarbotics, Repair Oasis, Protospace and MakerFaire Calgary.

Solarbotics will be bringing the regular selection of wonderful tech-y goodness including multiple demos, the Marble Machines, and the ever popular Uselessness:

Iron Man by Phillip Vatour is also making an appearance again this year:

Along with Protospace, Solarbotics is helping to man the Repair Oasis, the costume repair center that offers a helping screwdriver, heat gun, and a whole plethora of tools to anyone with a costume mishap. We get to see most elaborate costumes and do all kinds of crazy repairs!
Make sure to follow us on Instagram, facebook or twitter to see the best stories from the Expo. Weekend passes often sell out, so grab your TICKETS now, while you still can!

But at least the internet will save us. At least from information deficit. Laser Cut Helical Springs I wonder if zigzag helical springs can still travel down […]

New Bundle: The Northern Lights!

Ok, more like The Northern light. There's only one, but it creates lots of light! We made the SB-Firefly as a ATtiny85-based blinky light / "chewing-gum & duct-tape problem solver", that is also Digispark compatible. We made the Star Controller 3-watt RGB LED kit as an easy way to tame bright and power-hungry LEDs. We […]

Interesting stuff at the Exploratorium

Not exactly relevant to BEAM, but an interesting distraction: Here's some interesting media from the San Francisco Exploratorium. Notable media to watch is their "Iron Science Teacher" competition (familiar with "The Iron Chef? Same idea...), and their hosting of Robot Sumo Wrestling.
