Hands on Bug Labs’ BUGmodules

Bug Labs was at ShowStoppers in Las Vegas tonight showing off their new BUGmodules for their BUGbase.  They introduced a new pico projector module, a QWERTY keyboard, a 3G module, Bluetooth/Wi-Fi module, and an audio module with multiple lines in and lines out. 

Bug Labs introduced their BUGbase last year at CES.  This device lets you play with pre-fabricated components to build your own gadget.  Alicia Gibb, Gadget Wrangler, gave a great example of a person who created a GPS alarm clock. 

The idea was that the person wanted to be woken up on the train at their particular stop.  That person put together the GPS module with the BUGbase to make the device.  You don’t need to know how to solder to put together a device to test things on. 

The booth at ShowStoppers also had a mock-up of a dual wide LCD screen (an LCD that would be the same size as the BUGbase).  There is no official date for its launch, but expect it in the summer of this year.
