... actually it's pretty cool: THE APP-CONTROLLED BATMOBILE IS FINALLY HERE! - LEGO.com GB[^]
I'd have loved this when I was a kid.
Oh, hang on - we only had landlines back then. Damn. Have to wait for my Second Childhood then ... maybe next week.

I ran across that page doing a search for "Simple audio amplifier + arduino uno" I believe! It came up with a very simple amplifier to amplify cockroach sounds!

Maybe a project could be developed using one of these little guys in the AI challenge, maybe a cockroach pied piper to bring in all the others in the house?

I wonder if that kit also works on chickens. One could rent them out as robot guardian-cluckers

Backyard Brains wrote: Our cockroaches, however, can't find any winter jackets in their size and our package warmers don't work below freezing, consequently; we are unable to safely ship cockroaches when the forecast is below 40 for 2 or more consecutive days.
Backyard Brains wrote: Cockroaches are the happiest when they aren't in a shipping box for a long period of time. Therefore, we ship cockroaches out on Monday or Tuesday via 2-3 day USPS priority mail from Michigan. This way they won't sit in the Post Office over the weekend.
Also: Cockroach Care Kit[^]
Backyard Brains Quote: Pet ownership is a responsibility that builds character and confidence - and what better pet to own then your very own cockroach! If you've decided to take the plunge and dive into the world of cockroach husbandry, you might need some help supplying your colony and keeping your cockroaches alive and kicking.
I also found the owner of the website: Roach Coach![^]

Read the first 2 lines and thought "you have to be joking", the last line certainly got a chuckle, thank you.
I have a flock of sulphur crested cockatoos that will put the barking dog to shame. I've been known to mutter what you would shoot if you had a gun but being in Oz and an animal lover I really can't do that.
