SyRen 10A Regenerative Motor Driver
We have added some new products from Dimension Engineering to the Arduino Fun Shop. We are offering a 25% Discount Coupon, good Friday – Monday on these products! Use coupon code BFCM09 when completing your shopping cart order.
The SyRen motor driver is one of the most versatile, efficient and easy to use motor drivers on the market. It is suitable for medium powered robots – up to 30lbs in combat or 100lbs for general purpose robotics. Read more »
This is a repost of a previous project. I am still working to get the older post back online from when we upgraded Wordpress.
The robot was basically built using a Parallax Boe Bot chassis. Rather than using the Basic Stamp we added an Arduino with a proto shield to control the robot functions.
You can use any type of chassis for this project. The robot moves about using a ping sonar and IR sensors to avoid running into any objects. As you can see in the video, it was a bit thrown off by our kitten. We added additional items such as a wireless camera that sends audio/video back to our TV. Read more »

Arduino Workshop 21 Nov 09
Saturday turned out to be a great day for working with the Arduino at Wild Goose Creative. Although we missed the OSU Football game (but we already knew they would beat Michigan!) we had a great turn out. I was actually surprised at the amount who showed up on the big rivalry game day! It seems like the Arduino is catching on in Columbus.
I have added some photos to my Flickr page from today’s class. I need to start taking more photos at these events. I tend to forget to bring a camera with me 
Future classes are being planned and I will update with a schedule as soon as it is ready.
ShapeWays.com
ShapeWays.com has added a $50.00 Coupon to the ArduinoFun – Build It- contest! Have you ever wanted to turn your 3D designs into reality? Enter Shapeways! Just upload your design, we print it and ship it to you – it’s easy. Within ten working days you’ll hold your own design in your hands.
But that’s not all – we’re offering you everything you need to meet fellow Shapeways users, share your work and find inspiration.
We’re using a technique called ‘3D Printing’ which has proven itself as a high-quality production technique, but up to now has always been very expensive. By creating a large community we are able to produce much cheaper, meaning better prices for you.
