Sorry about the delay in making these available. These tiny 25:1 pager-sized gear motors are difficult to get built. BUT, we finally have more GM15 gearmotors in stock!

Grant Imahara gets a taco by copter at RoboGames 2013 (Video) While RoboGames is an exciting event as is, being attacked by taco-slinging Hex-copters is a whole different story.

IBM precisely places atoms to create the world’s smallest movie Atoms make a sound when moved around!

An Interactive Forest of Musical Lasers by Marshmallow Laser Feast An interactive installation consisting of vertically installed rods when touched trigger both audio and visual cues. The description doesn't do it justice, check out the video. |
So next time we are going to celebrate the Second Week of Return of the Cool Links Wednesday, you guessed right, with more cool links. And now I'm most likely going to celebrate One Hour Before the End of Work Day, with, you guessed right, more work!
