We're excited to announce a partnership with Qupiron Technology! Qupiron is devoted to assisting BirdBrain Technologies with increasing access to Hummingbird by developing a nationwide training network and additional training materials and opportunities for educators and students. We look forward to seeing where this takes us! Read the full press release here.
Raspberry Pi is a $35 palm-sized embedded computer. It can run Linux. The Hummingbird now supports Raspberry Pi's official debian-based operating system. This means you can write, compile, and run Java code on the Raspberry Pi. The Raspberry Pi is as small as a Hummingbird controller, so it can easily go inside a Hummingbird robot.

Engadget came to visit us yesterday and recorded some video of Tom Lauwers (founder of BirdBrain Technologies) talking about Hummingbird. Check out their story.
We just finished a major update to BirdBrain Snap, a drag and drop environment for programming Finch and Hummingbird. We added:
We'll be demonstrating and letting kids program both Finch and Hummingbird at the Pittsburgh mini-maker faire this Saturday. If you're in the area, come on down!
