Vancouver Mini Maker Faire

The best part of being a company in Canada is that you don't need to leave the country to go there. That being said, we're going to show some of our fellow Canuck's some lovin' by attending the Vancouver Mini Maker Faire at the Great Northern Way Campus from June 25th-26th.  We'll bring a handful of our more popular kits and acessories with us, along with some stuff that we distribute for SparkFun, Adafruit, and a few others. But wait, THERE'S MORE! We'll also be recreating the magical experience of a 100% free ARDX workshop. Drop by our booth, and we'll set you up with a couple Arduino-based experiments to try and give you any help you might need along the way. We'll even throw in a lil' treat for participating. This is a great chance for west coasters that didn't make it down to San Franscisco last month to experience Maker Faire. Be sure to drop by and say hello if you're in the area!

Strange set of Atmel '328 ICs...

Unlike Sparkfun, who actually manage to find fake Atmel ICs, we just get strange batches. The Atmel ATMega328 is the power behind the Arduino/Freeduino/*duino, and we have to set up a programming system to burn the venerable Arduino Bootloader into these chips. We normally use an AVR STK500 in HVSP (high voltage serial programming) mode, […]

Tasty Treats and New Treats, Too

A couple of weeks back we held an open house for Calgary's Protospace group. Many BBQ'd items were consumed, many objects were lazored, and many people seemed to be walking around in a stupor of admiration for all the nifty bits and pieces of equipment we have on hand. We had a good time visiting […]
