    Looks like a lot of fun....but too far away! :frown:

    I'm curious to hear how the "robot fence" works. That could be a great product to have in the catalog!!

    YES! There's already so much to report about the robofence, too. Daniel and I took your advice and replaced the pit bulls with Arlo robots and it works wonderfully. Along the way we reverse engineered some cheapo Chinese doggy shock collars we can use to make a Robot Fence product. Guess we will be repatriating some technology along the way :)

    As for the show, you'll find Jessica and myself in DC this weekend. We've hired a bunch of high school robot club students to run our display, an 800sf display of Arlo and ActivityBots. After this, we're invited to an NSF workshop to discuss best ways of getting teachers trained in STEM technologies.

    But most importantly, I see you're coming by on Sunday. This is great because I HAVE SOMETHING for you. So, shake me down and extract this goodie from me, because I owe you a huge thanks for being here 24-7.
