We're discontinuing Canada Post/Xpresspost as delivery methods. The service was already unavailable for some destinations, and selecting it was giving an error when entering an order. While postal delivery looked cheaper on paper, the fees did not include brokerage and disbursement expenses, which ended up added to sales tax (VAT) and duty and had to be paid on delivery. These easily added up to US$65 or 50 Euro to some orders and came as unwelcome surprises to many clients. At the same time most UPS AIR deliveries will now be shipping Express, either Next Day when available, or the best time if not. UPS AIR does include brokerage and disbursement fees, so the only things left to pay on delivery will be sales tax (VAT) and duty, without surprise fees.

We now offer the ability to use your own shipping account - making shipping and all those other fees related to shipping such as sales tax and brokerage fees part of your supplier's billing cycle instead of payment on delivery. A small handling fee applies to cover the extra paperwork we must fill out separate from automated systems.

Connect your sensors directly to your computer (ie. no MIDI interface as in the microDig) with the USB-microDig ! Super fast (how about a cool 5KHz sample rate ?), super versatile (inputs, outputs, I²C bi-directional digital bus) and super easy to use (USB interface, new software), ... we hope you're gonna dig this sensor interface as much as we do.

Capture body physiology with the BioEmo (GSR), BioFlex (EMG), BioBeat (EKG) and BioWave (facial EMG, EOG, brain signals) ! They combine perfectly with the Wi-microSystem (smaller than ever, 100 meter range, legal to use anywhere in the world and with new BatteryPack-800) !

We now offer a full-fledged package for researchers requiring a universal set of tools to instrument people, animals, objects and spaces with sensors and obtain measurement data for analysis and/or control. The I-CubeX Xplorer is a valuable addition to any lab doing serious research. Ask us about discounts if you're applying for grants in combination with matching funds so as to render the purchase free of any cost to you !

We just exhibited at AAM (Chicago, 13-17 May) and NIME (New York, 5 - 10 June), where we presented a series of new sensors (see an earlier news post) during a special workshop on sensors. Thanks to everyone who stopped by it was a great success ! Check back here from time to time as other events may be added as we see fit. Would you like us to attend or exhibit at some event ? Feel free to make a suggestion !
