Hi all! We've distilled this year's solar cell summer-solstice tests into a nice, pretty set of PDF files. Want to know the power curves of our solarcells? Check it out here!
We're teaming up with Brett Coulthard of Saskview.com to get their version of the Useless Machine put together as a parts bundle. We just finished it Friday night, and quick-posted tweets & a few photos of it, and are shipping today!
What comes in the bundle? Pretty much everything you need to successfully build a Useless Machine of your own:
We're only offering the box in black acrylic at the moment (experimented with clear - ehk), but if you ask really nicely, we probably could run one in red, blue, green, orange, white and (if you really want it), clear. Call in if you want any of those options.
Speaking of cool "Useless machines", Tony Youngblood's Christmas version was just featured on the Makezine Blog. He built his with our GM8 for super-fast response (we did our bundle with the slower GM4 - we like a more deliberate "ME: OFF" response).

Yes, we're approaching the time of the year when it's the darkest and all you want to do is sip tea and huddle around the ... soldering iron! The first of our specials is the "KHSB1 - Learn Robotics Book Special". It includes a copy of our popular "Junkbots, Bugbots, and Bots on Wheels", plus […]
Yup, I've got a ticket in my hands to be at the Robotics Society of America's Summer Robot Games and Expo. Why? Well, Solarbotics wants to see what other roboticists are up to "out there", so our first stop will be San Francisco July 27th. So if you're in the Fisherman's Wharf area that weekend, […]
