From bits to bytes…to bots

Apparently Bruce Shapiro was showing his “eggbot” at the Maker’s Faire, but I didn’t get a chance to see it.  But his instructions online give many details of how you might actually do something like that, and it all seems very clear and straightforward.   Interesting.

Addendum: For those of you who didn’t get to see this or talk to me, here is a brief writeup. Check the bottom of that page for a link to the PDF file I was handing out to explain why I did the project, and the links to the hardware and software that I used.
