Those pacific rim sites



hi

Enjoyed MINOS greatly in spite of the less than sparkling performance of
EdgarB - could have been the wine.

During my little bit on Saturday, I said that tehre was much to be
gained from sites originating in the pacific rim - Singapore, Korea and
Japan - even if you have no idea what the writing says. Here are a few
to try

NB - the first site has some video clips that may challenge a dial-up
connection. If your browser is not set up to display the correct
character set, just ignore the scrambled text at look at the pictures.

It is fairly easy to tell your browser how to do the appropriate font.
You will have to find that out for yourself though :)


check out the videos and note how busy they are.

Lots of pictures of mice:

some data sheets and micromouse video clips

A micromouse kit for about £400...pretty well enough information to
build your own with a bit of thought.

Another couple of good mice here with some useful information

A very expensive (£1000) mouse kit and a ready made maze - not cheap
either

A site with some constructional pictures.

Some very clever stuff here

There are plenty more. Just stop searching only for sites in english.
The pictures alone often have lots of useful ideas and information.

Happy browsing
