The MinuteBot Base Kick Starter funding successfully completed last Monday! Well done, backers! This means that production will start soon. Backers are expected to receive their baseplates this summer. Above you see a picture of what the base looks like right now. They’re still discussing the color it will be. Note that the size has...
The experiment is now over. I blogged about a new WiFi sensor earlier. So what do you do with a Wifi sensor? The cool thing about the internet is that you can involve anyone with a computer that has internet access. So that’s where you come in. You can control my robot. From your the...
The WifiBlock for Lego Mindstorms NXT by HumaRobotics is now available. The folks over at HumaRobotics have used it on the Anyway, making it possible to remotely control the balancing robot over WiFi. One of those sensors is on its way here. Check back here in a while to see new projects… powered by the...
Students from Crabapple Crossing elementary school have used the Snatcher for their “Robotic Recycling Center”. They’ve added a color sensor to be able to track lines, too. It’s always nice to see adaptions from the standard design to add more functionality. Well done kids! If you’ve done something special with the Snatcher, let me know...

Beginning users will enjoy the printer as an advanced project, but advanced users like Daniele Benedettelli, take the existing design to the next level. Danny wrote a Java program to enable the printer to draw not...
I’ve added support for the Microinfinity Cruizcore Gyroscopic sensor in my RobotC Segway driver. Check out building instructions and updated programming tutorial with new code. Here’s a video showing the new sensor in action. I’ve also made some changes to the balancing robot driver for all sensors: Changed how sensors are set up in sample...
If you’ve ever wondered why there isn’t a baseplate for Technic structures, you’re not alone. They’re useful especially for stationary robots, including but not limited to brick sorters or scientific set ups. Two Danes (of course) came up with the idea to design and manufacture such Technic Baseplate. Their project, Minute Bot Base, is currently...

Robotsquare is currently being updated, which means that it may look a little different (and not very polished) for a while. All the content and pages should still be there, though. It should be back and fully operational soon.
Thanks for your patience!
