RoboGlyphs are here!

Posted by Erin, the RobotGrrl on Wednesday, May 13th, 2009

I have hinted at RoboGlyphs several times during my blog posts… and now they are here!

They look stunning in real. Since I know not everyone would want an illuminator, I broke it down into three products:

RoboGlyph + Illuminator = $16.00
RoboGlyph = $12.50
Illuminator = $4.50

The illuminator comes in 3 different colours – orange, green, and blue!

I plan to make RoboGlyphs similar to the Nerd Merit Badges, where you have to collect them all to be SUPER COOL!

The first set of RoboGlyphs are the Three Laws of Robotics from Isaac Asimov.

I can’t wait to see if some will use an Arduino + PWM an RGB LED to create interesting effects. I know I’ll probably have to try that tomorrow!

You might be wondering where this money will go? Here’s the list:

1. MANOI’s gears (I need a new gear for one melted )
2. RoboGames 2009 Registration
3. Plane tickets to SF
4. Hotel in SF
5. Possible RobotGrrl.com T-shirt
6. Robot trading cards
6. Books, parts, sensors, etc.

The main focus here is RoboGames. Last year, I went to Stanford thanks to the entire robotics community. Now, I need to go to RoboGames because Grant Imahara will be there! Hahahaha, just kidding (or am I?). I actually want to go to see what its like, check out all the robots. I’m not entirely sure what to expect! I know that MANOI will be in good company there.

So, if you have any spare pennies lying around, buy a RoboGlyph or two! Buy a complete set!
