Welcome to the Encoder

Welcome to the Encoder, the Newsletter of the Seattle Robotics Society.

Encoder News
We have a new Encoder editor, and a new look! The Encoder articles are now cataloged in a database, which will make it easier to browse through all of the great articles we've published over the years. You can look by issue (as before), and now we've got a convenient way to find articles on a certain topic, or written by a specific author. We are still in the process of entering all the old article information into the database; until that is complete, you may notice that not all of the articles/ issues are showing up in our new lists (Issue, Topic, and Author). The complete list of all the articles is still available on the original Encoder index page. Google searching (on the right) will work just fine, using all of the articles.
