Here's a link to a Smalltimes article where they interview Mark (and a few others) about using MEMS (or Micro Electromechanical Systems) in the toy industry. Read More...
Here's another bunch of links for your viewing pleasure. Under the current meteorological conditions we wonder who would consider looking at screens, because, you know, real life takes over sometimes, especially when it is so nice outside, at least in our neighborhood.

HERB Learns to Separate Oreos, Probably Thinks Humans are Crazy Teaching a robot to separate cream from the Oreo cookies is an absurdly awesome idea. The combination of control, precision, extra joints in Herb's arms and Oreo-detecting abilities allow to do that. Success! |
So if you are less fortunate with weather or feel like staring at shiny pixels - visit us regularly, there's always something new to distract you from stuff, outdoors or in.

Seeed Grove - RTC $6.90 The RTC module is a member of Twig. It is based on the clock chip DS1307 which supports the I2C protocol. It uses a Lithium cell battery (CR1225). The clock/calendar provides seconds, minutes, hours, day, date, month and year information. Nidec SMD Vibra motor 1.3V DC, 105mA, 9500rpm $3.00 Surface-mount […]
The following instructions detail how to build a simple pummer using a BC2 (Bicore) BEP (Bicore Experimenter PCB). A pummer is a solar powered self activating LED flasher. The difference between a pummer and a BLFNAR (blinky light for no apparent reason) is that a pummer has a soft turn off, which means that it turns on fast, but slowly fades away.
