Snail Light Seeker on WIRED :]
Build It. Share It. Profit. Can Open Source Hardware Work?
My Snail bot is on WIRED Magazine!!! Amazing! :D
WIRED Magazine wrote an excellent article about Arduino and open-hardware. My Snail bot is one of the four applications featured in the article.
I found some SEVERE problems. They didn´t place the sensor antennas in the correct position.. and its author name (me) isn´t featured anywhere.
But what the heck.. my “Snail Light Seeker” is on WIRED, together with ThingM and Adafruit produts :]
It´s a very interesting article and a must read:

Robot Fácil com Arduino – 1ª Parte
Actualização:
Aqui vai a tradução à muito esperada deste tutorial, espero que vos seja útil.
Decidi remover a Ponte-H, o motor agora está directamente ligado às pilhas AA e o Arduino é alimentado por uma pilha de 9V. Este pequeno robot apenas anda em frente (para já).
Na 2ª parte vou adiccionar a Ponte-H e dois botões Bump. Assim o nosso pequeno robot poderá evitar obstáculos mudando de direcção.
Campus Party 2008
Ibero American Countries gather to diffuse digital boundaries, and to avoid digital exclusion.
Astronomy, Robotics, Innovation, Creativity, Modding and Digital Pleasure were the main areas where participants could share their knowledge and experience.
I went into the Robotics area, all the participants were very nice, I´ve met lots of interesting people from ibero-american countries. And there were really amazing Robotics projects!
One big thanks goes to Leonel Moura, he was the one who sent me the link to this event, and another big thanks to Alejandro for inviting me.
I will return to Portugal on Sunday, with a nice felling of hope for a better and unified world.
It was a great event!
22 robots, called skybot were built by the participants, one robot for each country and the final result was really amazing! Congratulations to all the participants! It has been a pleasure!
Robots can make this world a better world !!! :]
