2,000 Robots Fought In Afghanistan

As US troops fought a combat in Afghanistan there were over 100,000 soldiers joint the war. What did we know about this war was a man-to-man battle in a gun shot with the help of bunch of high-tech equipment like tank, Husky vehicle, bomber plane, etc. But there was another fact who said there is about 2,000 robots joint the war alongside the human troops in Afghanistan. Most of the robots used there were the life saving ground robots. These rob…
Autonomous Robots Zoo In Portugal

Before this, we only know that zoo only contains artificial habitat and real animals, but now as Leonel Moura did something remarkable, we can see robots swarming in the autonomous robots zoo. The Robotarium X is an art installation made by Leonel Moura in Jardim Central Zoo Alverca, Portugal, or autonomous robots zoo. Leonel Moura is an artist who has been dealing with autonomous robots since 2003. At Robotarium X, he constructed the first aut…
Grey Walter’s Tortoise Robots Elmer And Elsie

Grey Walter was a famous inventor after he built his tortoise robot Elmer (Electro Mechanical Robots) and Elsie (Light Sensitive). These robot also well known as Machina Speculatrix, while the tortoise name came after people noticing their slow movement and shape like turtle. Walter’s robots were built between 1948 Easter and 1949 Christmas. These robots were built with similar components but different in motors and shells. What actually made th…
Aizu Central Hospital’s Receptionist And Guidance Robots

These robots, in case, are the world’s first receptionist and guidance robots to be used on private hospital. The robots were placed at Aizu Chuo Hospital of Aizu-wakamatsu in Fukushima. These robots bring camera that used to monitoring the security around the hospital. The guidance robots used to guide visitor to elevator and bring their baggage. These guidance robots were autonomous robot that able to find its own recharge station when bettery…
Robots Football Team Preparing For The Competition

“Football is a beautiful game and a difficult game,” said Dr. Subramanian Ramamoorthly, an assistant professor in the School of Informatics at Edinburgh University who is overseeing the creation of the robots football team. The attractive sport in the world has influenced the science and technology knowledge. It is proved by the enthusiasm of each country in the world in doing the best preparation for RoboCup Competition at about 40 nations have…
Build an Underwater Robot

This document will provide information about building an under water robot. The under water robot can swim deep to look for Titanic, can see the volcano deep in the sea, dive thousand feet below, or discover new species deep in the dark ocean. Some under water robots controlled by built-in computers and can operate without any connection to the surface. These are called the AUVs (Autonomous Underwater Vehicles). Many of these underwater attach…
Cypriot School Students Learn To Build Underwater Robot

Organized by the Ministry of Education and Culture, MIT, and Cyprus Institute students in Ayia Fyla High School in Limassol learn to construct underwater robot called Sea Perch. This two-week of underwater robot construction educational training for teacher and students in Cyprus aimed to teach teachers about how to construct an underwater remotely operated vehicle. Sea Perch itself initially developed by MIT in order to promote the interest fro…
Hire ATLAS’ Robots For Your Party

On their site it is tagged that “Our robots mean business,” it is all true that their robots are open for business especially for entertainment businesses. Hiring ATLAS’ robots could be something awesome as well as different to your reputation as the host of the party. Their robots could greet, motivate, and of course entertain the entire guests on your party. They could dance with your guests, throw some jokes, or just play around with them. Ch…
Artificial Sensitive Skin Used For Robots

Our skin has the important part as our biological parts of our senses. As we know, that skin functions in touching certain objects in order that we can differentiate it. This fact is going to be applied in robots by the scientists at the Technical University of Munich, Germany. They try to develop a synthetic skin for robots that has the similar quality of our skin, an artificial sensitive skin. This artificial sensitive skin for robots is th…
New Surgical Technologies Method In Qatar

Jan Nuvens, as the Qatar Robotic Surgery Centre (QRSC), demonstrate this kind of new surgical technologies method by using the robotic technology on April 2010. This new surgical technologies method includes a 3-D surgical simulator and a tele-mentoring theater that allows distance training with leading doctors outside of Qatar. Actually, this kind of new surgical technologies method is not a new way in surgical technologies practical in the world but it is new in Qatar. The robotic surgery has been around for nearly ten years and it has proven to be safer for the patient.
Aeryon Scout An Aerial Vehicle System That Functioned Like Flying CCTV

Aeryon Scout is a new aerial vehicle system that provides aerial intelligent control directly on user’s hands. This aerial vehicle offers easieness not like others aerial vehicle system. Aeryon Scout generally is a vertical take-off and landing micro unmanned aerial vehicle. This aerial vehicle offers quality aerial intelligent to be learnt in minutes with the help of touch screen interface and systems that gathered on this vehicle. Field officers or civilian will capable to gather the professional skill in minutes using those system and of course the access to high quality aerial intelligent will be reached easily with this aerial vehicle.
Flashback On History Of Robotics II ( 1942 – 1959 )

We have seen the robotics history before from water clock in 250 B.C. until the 1937/1938 Elektro the mechanical man by Westinghouse. This article will try to mention the robots and years after 1938. There are six major inventions that lies between 1942 to 1959. The first one was in 1942. In this year Willard Pollard and Harold Roselund designed the first programmable paint spraying mechanism for US De Vilbiss Company. 1946 was the year where George Devol patented his general purpose playback device for machine controlling using magnetic recording. 1948 – 1949 was the year of Grey Walter when he built his first robot Elmer and Elsie that stands for Electro Mechanical Robots and Light Sensitive. These robots also well known as turtle and tortoise robot as they move slowly in respond to light.

MIT Autom The Losing Weight Robot Controller

Collaborate with Dr. Caroline Apovian, from the Nutrition and Weight Management Center at Boston Medical Center, the research on the Autom robot is done. The research is about the development of social robot. This robot designed to have social interaction with human and help them to solve the problem. Focus on the problem, Autom try to help human in losing the weight. This weight problem is a big problem for United State. Their existence increase the economy cost related to the obesity and health problems.
Camille Scherrer’s Magic Book
This project is a great one in my opinion, worked on the possibilities of improved reality in animating story. When you read a book at night under the lamp you will find an extraordinary thing appears from this book. What you need to do just open the book under the lamp and buzz … the pages take on new animated and mysterious dimensions … worlds appear and disappear with a direct connection to the actual items printed on paper: animal figures appear over the mountains, peaks emerge in a shadow play, a bird silently flies over, foxes light up the text with their lanterns at dusk
