I was kidding, of course, but Gijs' unorthodox approach to design (among other circuit benders) can be exactly the kind of project that gets people into electronics. Peter Forrest,
Wonderful to hear from you, and my feeling is as long as we have writers like you, engineering will ultimately be safe.

I was kidding, of course, but Gijs’ unorthodox approach to design (among other circuit benders) can be exactly the kind of project that gets people into electronics.

While scratching my head it occurred to me that this kind of apparatus distantly resembles the automated and R/C controlled robots in the increasingly common robotics competitions. Maybe this is a good way to get novices into electronics and mechanics. At the rate we are slowing down in engineering, anything will help. Peter,

Nice report. While scratching my head it occurred to me that this kind of apparatus distantly resembles the automated and R/C controlled robots in the increasingly common robotics competitions. Maybe this is a good way to get novices into electronics and mechanics. At the rate we are slowing down in engineering, anything will help.
