Harold Ilano built this SW2.2 / VBug inspired 5 motor walker named "Tank", and just recently announced it on the BEAM mailing list. It's a very effective and quick device - nicely done, and well worth a look-see. It still impresses me what we can do without a microcontroller...
We're CLOSED for Maker Faire

May 19, 2011
Yeah, we warned you. We're not even in our office to write out this newspost. Nay, this is one of them fancy pre-recorded messages. It may or may not self destruct.
So, yes, we're closed from May 19th (Thursday) to the 24th (Tuesday). We'll resume filling/shipping orders and replying to any correspondance once we're back in on Wednesday.
But what if you just can't stand to go without seeing us? Come drop by Maker Faire! We're running free Arduino Experimenter's workshops (based on the ARDX kit) at booth #53 all day. Drop in, say hi, and learn something new! Unless you already know ARDX stuff inside and out. Then drop by and learn something old. We'd love to see you either way.
This message will now self destruct in 3, 2, 1...
Ka-blammo.

The purpose of the class is to build a self-powered device that can propel itself over both smooth and rough terrain, using a pair of servos and a BEAM-style servo-controller circuit (similar in function to […]
Wednesday Cool Links: Dragon Fly, Prince...
Weeee, its Wednesday again. And that means time to stare at internet more! While in other parts of the world (or so we are told) things are growing, springing and budding, here we are, with overcast greyness and last year's stuff (grass - as a best case scenario) poking from underneath the dirty snow. So […]
