March Madness!
Today March Madness kicked off.
No, it wasn’t a retail store sale or anything like that. March Madness is a programming challenge issued to all hackerspaces by our favorite New Jersey hackerspace, FUBARLabs. The challenge is to write a complete, working program, everyday throughout March.
More info can be found about March Madness at the FUBARLabs website: http://fubarlabs.com/2010/02/march-madness-challenge/
Let the madness begin!

Philadelphia Robotics Meetup – Postponed
UPDATE: This has been postponed. We will update when it’s rescheduled.
Join us for the first Philadelphia Robotics Meetup Group of 2010!
This month’s meetup will feature a “spinning cube” demo of my complementary filter based Inertial Measurement Unit code for our Quadrotor controller board (that will make more sense when you see it) and Xbee-based wireless communication between the controller board and a laptop. Also, Foster Schucker of STEM Robotics will demo some VEX robots.
When: January 14th, 2010 at 7:30 PM

PLUG Into Hive76 == Success!
Our first official PLUG Into Hive76 was a great success last Thursday! We talked about ideas (including netchacing), Adam Grossman did a mini presentation on the 3D vision project, Elizabeth Krumbach donated a new tome to our library, and then we ate cake. Thanks to everybody who showed up!
PLUG Into Hive 76
Tonight PLUG and Hive 76 meet for our monthly collaborative meeting, entitled: “PLUG Into Hive 76”. Expect extreme amounts of fun and possibly kernel debugging. Or not. In any case stop by at 7 PM this evening. We’ll be brainstorming about projects and future project ideas.
