Maker Projects at Breaking Breadboards
Details
Four makers share their projects in embedded systems, robotics, and microcontroller electronics. Come, listen, ask questions, and learn in a friendly and entertaining environment. Demo's can go wrong, so enjoy the jeopardy as our presenters tell their story.

- A short talk and live demo exploring the Robot Choir: an experimental performance system that treats robotic voices as a choir rather than an instrument.
