| The Vancouver Robotics
Club is a meeting place for people who like building robots. We have
lots of information on available kits, part sources, electronic
components, microcontrollers and computers. Membership is $12 a
year, and we usually bring something interesting to each meeting.
Our members are more than willing to help you with your questions or
problems. |

Our regular meetings are at BCIT, in room
SW3-2745. Sometimes, somebody "steals" our room and we'll
move to a
room nearby. Click
here
for a map of BCIT. SW3 is in the middle of the "yellow" buildings.
Zoom in to see more details.
Our meetings start at 10:00 am and
run until everyone leaves, typically 12:30-1:00.
Please note that some of the
outside doors are locked. If you zoom in on the map and locate SW3,
you'll see a coffee cup symbol. The doors which enter into this area
on the North side (left on the map above) seem to always be open.
Parking is available in parking lot
P4 (just below SW3 on the map). Buy a ticket ($3 - bring three loonies) from one of the
meters. The signs say staff parking only, but this doesn't apply on
Sundays (one of the signs says so!). You can also pay by phone (call
the phone number shown by the meter)
