The Birth place of all my robots
 
 
 

Look Familiar anybody?
Yes the famous SOLAROBOTICS Magbot Sunbeam dancer or something
My fist working robot. It is seen in its natural habitat under the lamp as a good conversation piece.
 
 
 
 
 

A Test Platform?!?
 
 
 
 
 
 

INDEED!
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Robot#2 The solarobotics Photopopper
OR
the photopooper.....Sick Humor
My Hint on this one, male sure your tactile sensors are mounted evenly BEFORE SOLDERING. Mine look like poop. hehe.
 
 
 

My First NON- kit creation, PORKY
 
 

The big radio shaft potimeter and capacitor made for a pig nose and a big butt.
 
 

AS close as you're getting to the electronics, the camera needs film and the digital wasn't made for close-ups.
Well, it was a 4700uF cap at 10 volts, 2.2k resistors, a 100k pot, 2 pager motors(from allelectronics). i made it from the circuit tutorial at Chiu's site and the solarroler tutorial at beam online.

The photopopper still wins in a race even though it is handicapped
