Ubuntu "Things", to play with.

I never saw this page before today:

Ubuntu, has it titled "Things". http://www.ubuntu.com/internet-of-things

Following that page's links leads to: http://erlerobotics.com/blog/home-creative/

Do you know anyone that has any of these, "Things"?

Nah ... Maybe you too, hadn't seen these.

Thanks for the links.

Did you say, "Erle Robotics?" Then you should watch this Ubuntu On Air session with a guest who is someone at the top of Erle Robotics.

The Erle Robotics people are really impressed with Snappy Ubuntu Core.

Thanks, Graham. That is just from this week. Interesting.

They were early adopters of snaps.

Using a Raspberry PI for the hardware of the computer.

For Robotics, it is open-source development they are involved with. (I didn't catch the name(s) of which that is).

Funding development through Indiegogo crowdfunding.

So cool.

Maybe some day, we can see the helicopter in action too.
