You know how the six million dollar man ran in slow motion and that meant he was really strong and powerful and actually going super fast?
Yeah, that's us this year. Running slow, so we can go fast.
Status of the kids for OHMC 2022:

The assembly of the ordered kits is complete and everything is now in testing. Phew! 😅
For those who are hoping to score a spare: stay tuned. We want to focus on our confirmed recipients first and get them their kit as soon as we can before we sort out what remains.
This is us, and we're really sorry that the timeframe isn't up to our usual standards. Thank you to everyone for your patience!
ALT A triangle with the words "time", "cost" and "quality" written one on each corner. The words in the centre of the triangle read: "Pick two". This references the classical project management dilemma.
A huge thank you to all our speakers for the OHMC at #lca2022! It's a joy to hear about all the different adventures and experiments in open hardware every year.
MicroROS, combining advanced robotics and low-cost embedded systems, thanks to @BrettDowning

To folks who want to stay in touch with the open hardware community of LCA, whether that's with a Swagbadge from last year, or this year, or something else, come and chat with us and each other

Did you sign up for one of our annual and amazing OHMC kits and wondering when it'll ship?
We'll have more information soon (it needs a blog post written up; there's a lot to be said). Tldr: we will be shipping after LCA.
Thanks for your patience!
We don't want to ship you hardware that doesn't work, or hardware that hasn't been assembled, so we've made the decision to ship out the OHMC kits after LCA.

Looking to join in with a hardware kit for #lca2022? Alas, our initial sets sold out very quickly but we have great talks to listen to, (including this years tales of woe and derring do) and all the hardware specs are online if you’re feeling up to building your own!
A very merry swaggy badgy 🎄 to you!
I’ve resurrected my @swagbadge2021 to drive a strand of WS2812 wrapped around the tree. Looking forward to this year’s miniconf! Must check the strategic Unobtanium™ reserves. #lca2021 #lca2022
