Weekend Tidbits

Being April in Calgary, it should come as no surprise to any of you that yesterday we had a lovely blizzard which melted and froze, coating everything in a delicious layer of ice. This, of course, is somehow connected to the fact that Solarbotics El Presidante, Dave, is currently in Las Vegas where it is most certainly not snowing. His excuse is that he's there for a pick-and-palace conference. We think he used voodoo witchcraft to escape the ugly weather while the rest of us had to stay and suffer.

Anyways.

We have a few small odds and ends for you to check out this weekend.

  • We're proud to announce a brand-new partnership with DitenTec. If you're looking for a distributor of Solarbotics parts in Argentina, they have you covered.
  • Our pals at GoRobotics.net are celebrating their 10th anniversary with a totally awesome contest. They have $1000 in prizes to hand out to those who createand enter a project. Hit up the link to check it out.
  • Robofest 2010 took place this March, and they've just posted some video and photos. Looks like it was a blast!

That about wraps things up for now. Have a good weekend everyone. Hopefully one without snow and ice.

Using the licensed "MillerEngine" (which we find to be a substantial improvement over the old Solarengine), we've changed the kit with a new black circuit board and updated documentation. Check it out […]

Solarbotics is, um.. out of power...

There's a power failure in our area this morning, so what to do... Hey, let's take the staff out for breakfast! So since the phones are down, the server is down, the lights are out, and there's a sticky-note on the front door saying as much, we're not open. Not for another hour or two, […]

Fosshape and Wonderflex at Solarbotics

With our recent experiences with the costuming and cosplay communities, we've learned a lot about new materials that cosplayers use for making masks, props and armour. That added a few new words to our vocabulary and awesome new items to our inventory. First, Fosshape. It is a felt-like polyester fabric that can be stretched and […]
