Vancouver Mini Maker Faire

The best part of being a company in Canada is that you don't need to leave the country to go there. That being said, we're going to show some of our fellow Canuck's some lovin' by attending the Vancouver Mini Maker Faire at the Great Northern Way Campus from June 25th-26th.  We'll bring a handful of our more popular kits and acessories with us, along with some stuff that we distribute for SparkFun, Adafruit, and a few others. But wait, THERE'S MORE! We'll also be recreating the magical experience of a 100% free ARDX workshop. Drop by our booth, and we'll set you up with a couple Arduino-based experiments to try and give you any help you might need along the way. We'll even throw in a lil' treat for participating. This is a great chance for west coasters that didn't make it down to San Franscisco last month to experience Maker Faire. Be sure to drop by and say hello if you're in the area!

This is Gareth Branwyn's latest book on robotics. Why should you care? Well, our own Dave Hrynkiw (dat be me) was honoured with the task of tech-editting it. It's a fun read, with some BEAM and not-so-BEAM projects, so if you're a raw newbie to robotics, this belongs on your bookshelf next to "Junkbots, Bugbots […]
