The Cowtown Computer Congress

This move is close to being done. This is one of the moves that I am working on for the demonstration contest at Robogames 2009. I have a few other new moves that are not yet ready. I will post more as I get them ready. This was a lot harder to program then it looks. My robot’s arms are too short. This makes it hard to transfer an object from one hand to another.

Different look at the move Version1.

AC Motors are awesome! This is a single phase, 1/2HP, 865 RPM motor I ripped from an air conditioning unit a while ago. What to do with this next not sure, either rip the magnet wire out of it, or plug it in! I suppose I could decommission my dryer for a while.

just had a vision

I had a chance to get into the Lab this evening and had a chance to take some additional pictures. This is our blank slate…build-out begins on February 1st.

@jur1st

We are tentatively planning on holding an entire week of events to celebrate our grand opening to the public during the first week of March. These events will be held in the evening and will culminate on Saturday night with a party at a place yet to be determined.

We are looking for project showcases, workshops, and other talks related to technology, art and society.

If you’re interested in putting something on, contact me at jur1st at cowtowncomputercongress dot org.

If you’re going to be coming in from out of town and would like to inquire about lodging, head over to the Google Group and make a post.
