April 3, 2002
The Western Canadian Robot Games is quickly approaching! May 10 & 11; SAIT Heart Building.
Solarbotics will be there again, sponsoring (among other things) our own SolarSpeeder race. Aim your solarspeeder through a 4" gap in a wall 8 feet away, and win a ScoutWalker II kit! No registration required - just come on down to the event, and register at the Solarbotics table.
Solarbotics is also teaming up again with Sherline Machine tools to offer a 4500A Mill up for silent auction at the event. If you're interested in ways to build precision small robot parts, you may want to check by our booth and place a bid!

Sure, it uses the same form factor (well, except for the breadboard-friendly mini version), but the Netduino uses the .NET micro framework. What's that mean? Well, you're using a hugely more capable microcontroller (8-bit vs 32 bit), with much more memory […]
