Maker Faire Break the CODE Contest!
Be the first to break the code on the Maker Faire Robo101 Flyer and you will receive a Robo101 Arduino bot.
On the back of the flyer is a crossword puzzle. Solve the puzzle using your knowledge of robots. Also, some of the answers can be found by checking out articles currently posted on Robo101!
In this puzzle is a hint to help you break the code on the front of the flyer. AND as promised here’s a 2nd hint…
Drum roll please…

Once you’ve solved the code, hurry to be the first to email us with your answer. Send an email with your name, home address, and the code solution to codebraker@robo101.com and tell us how you liked the Maker Faire! (Please be assured you’re personal information will be safe with us and not used for any other purposes. We’re just a couple of robot lovers like you, not spammers!)
The Prize…A Robo101 Arduino Bot.
The Robo101 Arduino Bot uses the Arduino diecimila bootloader on a Atmil 168 microcontroller, which gives the bot great flexibilty due to the open source bootloader and the inexpensive price of the Atmil 168. This allows for easy enhancements to the bot with out the cost of adding traditional microcontrollers like the Basic stamp.
The Robo101 Arduino Bot consists of:
1) One Atmil 168 microcontroller with the Arduino boot loader
2) Two drive motors with soft foam wheels, allowing for traction on smooth
and uneven services
3) A dual h-bridge motor driver controls the wheels
4) Customized, clear, unbreakable Lexan base
5) 26X12 large breadboard allowing for extensive prototyping capabilities
6) Eight LEDs
7) Jumpers
8) Four IR sensors for edge detection
9) Two whisker sensors
10) Battery pack
DISCLAIMER: The Robo101 Arduino Bot does not have any cash value. Winner will receive robot and complimentary shipping in the Continental US.
