Need More Robot Gift Ideas?
     


The Makezine blog offers you
their Robot
Gift Guide full of cool robot gadgets, kits, and toys from the Maker
Shed. As they note in the intro to their list, "In the last few
years, the world of hobby robotics has exploded. Driven by the
plummeting prices and ubiquity of microcontrollers, servomotors, and
other electronic and mechanical components, the growth in personal
fabrication technologies, and the success [of] commercial toy, hobby,
and domestic robots." You may even notice a few items they have in
common with our own
annual Top 10 Christmas
Gift Ideas list.  I spotted the i-Sobot,
the Pololu
3pi, the Mechamo
Centipede, and the Tiny
Cylon kit. But they also have a lot of other ideas for you too. Wrex
the Dawg, the BEAM
robot Maker Bundle, Herbie
the Mousebot (pictured above), even an inflatable
robotic blimp. There are lots of other robotic goodies there too, so
check it out - and don't forget to buy a a few gifts for your friends at
robots.net!
