Vex Robotics Design Systems
New robot kit (coming soon) on the market, still priced rather high ($300) but has a controller that should kick ass.
Each kit contains everything necessary to build an radio-controlled Erector-set-style robot including a pro-level, six-channel radio controller, a programmable micro controller, and hundreds of nuts, bolts, gears, wheels, and flexible metal bars that you can bend into almost any shape and even cut into pieces. Radio Shack says there are over 500 parts in each 2- by 2-foot box.
No mention of a speed controller but maybe that’s something you can buy later.
The large metal plates remind me of parts that I found in the Robocon store in Japan. They had those and other beams and plates that looked like some sort of industrial Meccano set.
Build your Own LCD Photo Frame?
I remember seeing these back when they first came out and thought of how it could be used for other things. I looked around to see if anyone had cracked one open and up until now there wasn’t anything on them. Now, however, there is a bit of info on how to turn one into a cheap picture frame.
