We've been shopping again, but the accountant won't let us hoard all the goodies for ourselves. SOOO, we're announcing the following goodies! RBFB: The Book "Robot Building for Beginners" by David Cook, which is an excellent reference for a newcomer to robotics. It's an ideal companion for our own book "Junkbots, Bugbots, and Bots on […]
We're CLOSED for Maker Faire
Dave Hrynkiw
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.

This project is using the "KickStarter" model of sponsorship. Ask for pledges for the projects, and if the minimum is met (and it has - yay!), the […]
BEAM as part of thesis work
Rory Nugent (of Solar Xylophone fame) has posted his thesis presentation to the Interactive Telecommunications Program, which heavily features BEAM devices. By "building things with a sense of life", he's documenting what we've known for a good while - autonomous devices ("pets") offer unusual interesting relationships. Keep up the good work!
