Boise ‘Bot Competition 2011 10.8.2011
Its been another year, and ‘bot building season is coming upon us so very quickly! In our third year, we and our partners in crime, and hosts of the Bot Comp, the Discovery Center of Idaho are putting together an event filled with fun activities and awesome exhibits. For those endeavoring robot builders, our new challenge this year is to make an even smaller sumo robot. While we will still be having our Mini Sumo tournament (6″x6″ max size) as the main event, advanced builders have the opportunity to condense their handiwork into a 2″x2″ square for our first ever Micro Sumo Tournament. Often just getting the necessary circuitry to fit into the qualifying dimensions is a tougher hurdle than actually competing with such a small robot.
Leading up to the Bot Competition at the Discovery Center, the Reuseum and Discovery Center both facilitate classes and workshops on robotics. Please don’t hesitate to come down, and staytuned for events and workshops themed for the competition.
Groups, individuals and organizations are also welcome to register and promote their passion for technology at the Tech Fest,. If you would like more information, or would like to reserve a free table, please email boisebotcompetition(at)gmail.com
For a full schedule, information on exhibits and activities and more, you can visit Boisebotcompetition.org We hope to see you there!

Squishy Circuits Workshop 9.3.11
With every workshop at the Reuseum, we strive to tackle subjects that help to introduce, enlighten and educate individuals on topics of electronics, hobby engineering, and crafts. There are however barriers that sometimes present themselves like using hot tools for soldering, reading schematics and identifying components that require their own time and could really use their own class or workshop in order to cover the fundamentals. Well, what better way to do that then with conductive dough! …and glue! It seems that the wonderful creators of “Squishy Circuits” at Thomas Lab at the University of St. Thomas have come up with an amazing way to make conductive and insulating homemade playdoh, and were very excited to let us run an independent workshop based on their ideas and tutorials. We’ll be covering some other aspects of “Kitchen Science” as well, like making your own conductive glue, and making molds at home. Through the course of the workshop, we will discuss recipes describing how to make your own materials at home to play with, and the many projects that can be done. Keep in mind this is a hands on workshop, so wear clothes you don’t care about getting messy!The workshop will start at 6:30pm and last through the evening until about 9:30pm, and is open for all ages, families and groups of friends to share. The kit that will be reserved for you to take home will include many components and pieces that you will use ( and reuse) for experimenting with all of the activities we will be presenting to you throughout the evening. Spots are limited so please don’t hesitate to sign up now!
More info on Squishy Circuits can be found on their project page.
This workshop is run independently by the Reuseum, which maintains no affiliation with the Thomas Lab at the University of St. Thomas.
