Experimental technology is designed to inspire people to go build the next great thing, whether robotics, consumer devices, or art. Sun SPOTs (Small Programmable Object Technology) are matchbox-sized, battery-operated devices that communicate wirelessly with one another and are Sun's latest example of experimental technology.
Tune in to the newest edition of Innovating@Sun where Roger Meike, research director at Sun Labs, talks with host Hal Stern about the hottest little device that runs without an operating system.
Cool things about Sun SPOTs:
Watch for more information on Sun SPOTs which are in the final stages of release now. Soon a development kit selling for around $500 will be available online that will allow for people to start playing with them. Talk about a cool holiday gift.
