Okay, the more robot-savvy amongst us are probably way ahead of me on this, but I just discovered Lynxmotion, a company putting out really cool robotics kits. The first one that I saw (discovered via Gizmodo), the BH3-R, looks a bit like the replicator spaceship in Stargate SG-1. Except yellow. But then I saw the BH2, and the ’80s came rushing back to me.
The robot kits are a bit pricey – definitely for the enthusiast crowd – but they also have an interesting selection of smaller battle-bot style devices as well.
And did I mention many of the robots will run off PS2 controllers?
Awesome!
