Love the bluetac holding the oscillating IR sensor to the servo! I'm still kicking, just in the process of changing jobs and moving house. Work has been...
Haha, yeah the Blu-Tac was meant to be temporary but sandwiching it on the smooth plastic underside of a 19g servo with smooth metal on the other side it is...
Can anyone suggest a decent Oscilloscope which is under $1500 and available in Australia. I like the look of logic analysis but can I get it in the price...
Well, depending on how often you use it, you might as well spend the extra money because you will have it for a long time. I mean a 2500 or a 1500 computer is...
Hi All, I am working on a project involving the NGW100. I want to use the preinstalled Linux OS so now I need to change my thinking from AVR development to...
Thanks Nigel, Yes I saw a lot of your work on those sites, good info! So from what I can gather I have 2 options: - Use GPIO for USART and SPI or - Use...

G'day Alex, Welcome aboard. There has been a bit of interest lately in having a competition of some sort so your input is timely and welcome. I am certainly up...
Ok, I personally know of at least 3 new people looking to have a get together. I am sure some of the people who have met up in the past are also keen. In that...
I'm incredibly versatile with when I can meet, though one of the guys I've been talking to is best available after work (after 6pm) I'll go wherever the group...
The only problem with a pub or coffee shop is that you can't bring your robots and lay them all out for show and tell etc. Depends what sort of a meeting you...
This meeting I want to organise isn't to show off your robots (yet) It's to discuss an idea for an annual robotics event I want to organise. Just want to fill...
