Tech Tuesday: ArduSAT & a phone charging belt buckle

This week on News 1130 in Vancouver, I talked about these items:

• ArduSAT – a fantastic Kickstarter project to put a private satellite in space that you can control. Based on the amount pledged to the campaign you can get to control the cameras onboard, run experiments or even broadcast your own message from space (source)
• The Volt Belt Buckle – another crowd funded project that will get you a cleverly designed belt buckle that is also a stealthy wall charger for nearly any USB device. You’ll never leave home again without a charger for your phone (source)
