    Tiny robotic hand has the gentlest touch
    2008-05-09 21:37:53
    A tiny pair of robotic tweezers with the most sensitive grip yet can pick up and move individual cells without damaging them, guided by their own sense of touch. They could be used to probe the properties of living tissue, or create microscale and nanoscale devices. read more

    The Coming Robotic Apocalypse
    2008-02-28 00:27:41
    Gadzooks! My evil plan has been discovered!From the AFP:Automated killer robots 'threat to humanity': expertIncreasingly autonomous, gun-toting robots developed for warfare could easily fall into the hands of terrorists and may one day unleash a robot arms race, a top expert on artificial intelligence "They pose a threat to humanity," said University of Sheffield professor Noel Sharkey ahead of a keynote address Wednesday before Britain's Royal United Services Institute. But up to now, a human hand has always been required to push the button or pull the trigger. It we are not careful, he said, that could change. Military leaders "are quite clear that they want autonomous robots as soon as possible, because they are more cost-effective and give a risk-free war," he said. Several countries, led by the United States, have already invested heavily in robot warriors developed for use on the battlefield. South Korea and Israel both deploy armed robot

    The RUG Community robotic hobbyists
    2008-02-08 12:41:34
    We miss seeing the show that used to have battle bots tear each other apart. Well, it was like the war of battle bots. Anyway, I saw a website that was created just for those robots fanatic. It is actually where those robotic hobbyists around the world can visit and share their latest inventions as well as what they like to do. There are so many talented people that can build amazing things like robots. So, if you are one of those crowd, you might like to Join the RUG Community, because it is definitely the place where you can find out what's new in the robotics and AI world. You can, of course, see a full photo gallery, forums and free blobs, so you can share what you have to say and show the world.

    Aliens Robotic Machine Used By Sigourney Weaver is bad ass
    2007-12-14 12:25:00
    I have watched this movie when I was a pre-teen at the cinema, and MY! It completely blew me away. It has got my adrenalin pumping so hard that I almost wanted to slip back to my seat and take a breather! Although during that time I didn't quite understand most parts of it (too young to understand), I was deeply immersed into such rich story-telling and the fantastic alien creatures. The

    WowWee Roboreptile Robotic Reptile
    2007-11-21 20:43:24
    Wowwee’s Roboreptile is an often startling robotic toy that, once you get the hang of its wonky controls, is actually pretty fun. Like other Wowwee robots, there’s a preprogrammed animation that goes off when it is first powered up. It’s impressive: growling, snapping jaws and a whipping tail. In short, Roboreptile looks like something out [...]

    Robot Gadgets: Albert Einstein goes all robotic
    2007-07-31 15:30:17
    When it comes to robotics you cannot get any more clever than this because Albert Einstein goes all robotic, the new robot called Robot Hubo is the creation of professor Jun Ho-Oh (L). Jun Ho-Oh from South Korea’s Institute of Advanced Technology showed off his creation at the Campus Party in Valencia.This robot is so clever it can talk, walk and even smile, oh and you do not want to mess with this robot either because it will kick your ass as it is learning Tai-Chi thanks to the 66 motors. He is a clever little sod.Looking at it seems to be a normal robot, but then the head turns to reveal Albert Einstein (pretty cool I might add). He actually says “Hi. My name is Albert Hubo. I come from South Korea and I am very happy to be in Valencia,”This clever robot is 4 foot 5 inches tall and runs on a Windows XP platformPost By Product-Reviews

    Doctor Who - The (Robotic) Companion
    2007-07-21 18:14:39
    The last couple of posts have both included only Doctor Who baddies. This is because there weren't really many series good guys at the exhibition. This is probably unsurprising - they tend to be played by real people (and I doubt David Tennant would be willing to stand still at the exhibition for eight hours a day), whereas the baddies are generally large alien costumes (which might have people in them in the shows, but exist on their own after the cameras are switched off).There was one 'good guy' there though - K9 - the Doctor's faithful robotic companion.Nikon 12-24mm at 12mm, 1/60sec, f/11, flash

    Author: Gordon Petten The word robot comes from the Czech word “robota”, meaning “forced labor.” The stuff of science fiction robotics in the 21st century is different than your parents or your grandparents’ ideas of robotics. What used to be thought of as futuristic improbability is now becoming a reality. There are, theoretically, three Laws of [...]

    Robotic hand presented in Japan: death by Powerpoint
    2007-06-27 17:59:07
    Remember that creepy robotic hand we saw terrorizing Japan last week? Well now it’s on the loose in some conference room picking up eggs, shaking hands, holding a pencil and crushing a cup with its super action Kung Fu Grip. No video of it crushing skulls but we know what’s really going on, we know. Its purpose still isn’t any clearer (manufacturing-only or also prosthetics?), only that its functionality is meant to exceed that of the human hand. See just one of many videos after the break.Continue reading Robotic hand presented in Japan: death by Powerpoint

    Robotic Vehicles to Look for Life in Arctic Depths
    2007-06-24 16:21:00
    The Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution has designed three new robotic vehicles for a rare expedition to look for life on the floor of the Arctic Ocean. A 30-member research team will depart with the new vehicles on July 1 to study the Gakkel Ridge, an area that is believed to have been mostly cut off from other ecosystems for at least 26 million years.Three new robotic vehicles designed by researchers at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution will embark on an expedition next month to search for life on the Arctic Ocean floor.The vehicles -- two autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) and a tethered, remote-controlled sampling system -- were designed specifically for the challenges of operating in Arctic ice, which can easily crush most small vehicles."Anyone can deploy an AUV in the Arctic; the trick is getting it back," said Hanumant Singh, the lead Woods Hole engineer and vehicle developer on the project. "In order to have a good day with autonomous vehicles, the number of recoveries

    Intelligent Hospital Solutions - RIVA - Robotic IV Automation
    2007-06-14 15:20:34
    Intelligent Hospital Solutions is building a system called RIVA which stands for Robotic IV Automation, it’s a large box of automation which would be installed in a hospital to aid in proper medication delivery. Have a close look at the second image, that’s right a huge robotic arm is used to move the product through various stages inside the machine. I wonder if the development team has some fun with the robotic arms before they are installed into the system? Videos after the jump. “Robotic IV Automation (RIVA) is a medical device developed by Intelligent Hospital Systems Inc. (IH Systems) which will be used by hospital pharmacies to automatically and accurately prepare IV syringes and bags. By automating the preparation of IV syringes and bags, RIVA will address the issues of safety for the patient and the pharmacy technician, efficiency and effectiveness in the pharmacy and the challenges of a changing regulatory environment.”
