I'll be showing off some robots at the Robot Block Party at Stanford VAIL again this year, showing off data visualization of a mock Mars-rover made for the Academy of Sciences, and probably a few other "just for fun" bot friends. If you're in the Bay Area next week, check us out, as well as others' research, industrial and consumer robotics, robot clubs and STEM organizations.

I publicly debuted the Growbot, a symbiotic aquarium and hydroponic garden that's managed by a rudimentary AI robot, at the California Academy of Sciences Nightlife last week. Growbot is based on the Propeller chipset by Parallax and OSX (with a Playstation Eye camera), and can monitor Ph, lighting, temperature, watering, humidity, plant health and disease, feeding, draining, and more.
I'll be putting the source code and schematics online here, so check back and Build It Yourself.

Tosh and I will be standing next to some robots we've made, who will in turn present their skills to the world, at Nightlife at the California Academy of Sciences on February 23. 
Expect some underwater research vessels, and autonomous battle-bot-protester with realtime crowd-analysis and targetting, and something that'll react to precisely how drunk you don't know you are.
Come have a drink and enjoy lively debate with some new robot friends.
