It's Monday, and that means it's time for Adventures in Science! This week, we dive into the mysterious world of rotary encoders.
Let's dissect another section of EdiBot 2.0 and learn how to spin DC motors with Python.
Today we theorize what would happen if the B-52s wrote a song about an Iridium SatComm Module.
Combat robots are cool and you can build your own. Check out this 3-part video series on how to build one yourself!
This week, a new version of the uArm, a new distance and gesture sensor from XYZ Interactive and a special sale to honor Nikola Tesla.
This post highlights my method of creating the control system for our AVC battle arena.
This week we have a couple new products to talk about for your next robotics project. Check it out!
This Saturday was the kick-off for the 28th FIRST Robotics Competition. This competition has grown from a couple dozen schools to over 3000 teams internationally. This year, Sparkfun has reached out to help teams in this year's competition.
