Darn! Why is it that everybody else has time to get video of these robots online but me?!? Oh well - at least it comes with a real nice review!
Hi all. Yesterday's solar race cars were very cool. Lots of neat tech, and a neck'n'neck race to the finish too! I took the extra effort to see some of the cars out at highway speed, then saw them again in-town. These things
move! Anyways, enough about that.
I got an email from John Hopkins, who's working on a documentary about Mark Tilden and the Robosapien. From John:
I'm a producer/director from Canada and Mark Tilden's cousin. I've been researching and shooting a feature documentary about the lifelong adventures, ideas, and scientific work of Mark Tilden for CBC's Nature of Things in Canada.
Thanks for any assistance you and your site participants might be able to offer.
Cheers,
John

Last week we beefed up the Ardweeny with the Multipack, and this week we're turning out attention to the Arduino. We've just released the CMDR (Compact Motor Driver) Shield, which lets you bi-directionally drive two gear motors or a single stepper motor, read 6 analog sensors, and control up to 8 servos all at the […]
We were pleased to see the Kickstarter for Ringo, the Photopopper-ish but much smarter version of our own ~17 year old design robot kit. The video showcases some pretty cool behaviors, and is easily one of those projects where we think "Jee, why didn't we do that?"
These motors are simply too cool not to have wheels for, and although you can screw on a wheel to the existing motor output arms, these GM10 wheels are much more convenient. We built a micro-sumo robot ("MicroVore" - yeah, we know it means "micro-eater") for the PDXBot competition last week, and came in third […]
