of 2008. This robotic contest named ArmRobotics where youth competed to design and build robot. This first robotic competition asked participants to design and build robot that able to track black line on a white field. Here robots should be fast, accurate, and able to overcome obstacles. In this first robotic challenge there were 18 teams, from Armenia and Iran, competing. The final contest that held in 15 December was competing 9 teams from Ar…
Robotics tournament is an annual event which engages people to create their own robot in a team. Botball Educational Robotic Program is a robotics tournaments that allows middle and high school students in team to attend this robotics project educational competition based on national science education standards. Students use science, engineering, technology, math, and writing skill in designing, building, programming, and documenting robots at B…
After the first robot built over hundred years ago and since the first used of robot and robotic words there have been lots of robots were built in the world. Industrial, military, entertainment, human assistance or just experimental robot were made. But from thousands robot that have been built we pick 10 robots as the best robots that human race ever built. Lays on number ten there is Digesting Duck by Jacques de Vaucanson in 1738. This famous…
In order to exploring Mars surface NASA developed twin exporation rovers named Opportunity and Spirit. These twin robot geologists is a part of NASA’s Mars Exploration Program were launched to Mars on June 10 and July 7 of 2003 and succesfully landed on Mars in January 4 and January 25 of 2004. The twion robots are part of NASA’s long term mission in exploring the Mars surface with robotics. The mission of these robots was searching the wide ra…
In 2005 Toshiba developed two robots named ApriAlpha and ApriAttenda. These two robots have different kinds of ability but same purpose in goals. Both robots made in order to promote the development of human centric technologies that leads to life support partner robot. ApriAlpha is a robot that could recognize people through voice and it also could differentiate voice that comes from different locations. ApriAttenda could recognize people from …
Nowadays, robot technology is considered as the important part of each country’s military army. As stated by Peter Singer, an author of books on the military, “You have Russia, China, Pakistan and Iran Working on military robots and the United States is ahead in military robots. We are at a point of revolution in war.” Pakistan is one of the countries working on the development of military robots, working on intelligent robot development, as it …
It was said that Japanese government has used their Monirobo robots in monitoring the damage nuclear power plant Fukushima Dai-Ichi. It was said also that US military helped the Japanese government by sending their UAV Global Hawk model Block 30 to peek the possible damage of reactor in Fukushima. Beside the UAV US company iRobot donated their robots to help Japanese government to deal with the damage reactor. They donated their iRobot 510 PacBo…
Tibi and Dabo, robots that are designed by ESDi and IRI (Institute of Robotics and Industrial Informatics) who funded URUS (Ubiquitous Networking Robotics in Urban Setting) Project. These two robots designed to provide a wide range of service for people in Barcelona’s public spaces. In making this robot several studies have been held. These studies held in order to find the final shape of Tibi and Dabo. The studies included study in sociologic…
ATLAS Robotics could help your fair to be more exciting and fun with their robots. Robots could be something new and surprising for some people because most people never had a real chance to interact with robots. With the robot existence on the fair it gives chance for those who never been interact with them. Such idea could add little funny magical and exciting experience for some people and of course drags your event more electrifying. How cou…
The original source of this article is taken from Quirky China News. A Chinese farmer named Wu Yulu demonstrated his Wu No. 25. Over 30 years Wu Yulu that only has a basic school education had created 26 robots. He designed the robot and built it alone. For the material needed in building the robot he used available materials only. He said to the Beijing Times, “When I was 11, one day I was sitting on the doorstep, and while watching villagers…
Eoin McNally and Ian Walton created what so called as light alarm glo Pillow. This pillow looks like a regular pillow and made of regular foam but equipped with LED lights. This light alarm works by glowing in a rhythm. About 40 minutes before woken up the pillow starts glowing brighter and brighter. This gradually glowing is simulating the sunrise; this simulation of natural waking process will help the circadian rhythm of the user.
The human body has come across the industrial designer’s mind, this idea results in the innovative and functional concept called METIS. METIS concept is simple, redefining the human future. The concept of prosthesis arm is to provide an amputee an access to the existing virtual dimensions around him by giving back his limb. Moreover, this prosthesis features more advanced technologies than a real hand such as 360 degrees rotating ability of the arm, equipped with 3G, Wi-Fi, LCD display and rechargeable lithium-ion batteries that supply power for the electric elements.
This cool game gadget is called Sifteo. This alternative game system is shaped in cubes. Each of the cubes sized 1.5 inch equipped with computers with full-color screen display. Sifteo could sense their motion, sense each other, and wirelessly connect to computer. With this modern cube game people could play game that combines brain and body. This small package game has a great deal of thing inside. It could be used for all range of ages. Kids, adults, or elderly could use this game. Each of this cubes equipped with several support systems like a full color LCD, a 3D motion sensor, wireless communication, and peppy CPU.
This device appears to be in robotic fashion way, this digital SLR camera product named PENTAX Kr Korejanairobomoderu. Whatever its name means but this digital SLR camera is a limited edition from PENTAX. There will be only 100 devices and each of these cameras priced in 99,800 yen. The manufacturer schedules to sale this camera in January 2011 but you start booking this camera in 24 December 2010. The camera itself is a common digital SLR camera but wrapped in a robotic style. The most astonishing part is that there is a robot head attached on its top.
Paolo Robuffo Giordano and his mates in Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics, Germany, created some serious game like Formula 1 simulator robotic using arm robot. Basically this simulator robot is like a race game, operator sit in cabin that attached in the arm robot that face screen that give the visual of race track. There are feed back between steering wheel and pedals from cabin and video on the screen. The visualization is created by Robuffo Giordano’s colleagues Joachim Tesch and Martin Breidt. The gap between pedals to the video is impressive just 40 milliseconds.
This is the cool robot Murata Girl. This robot developed by the Japanese company Murata Manufacturing Co. following the previous Murata Boy. The first debut of this robot is in CEATEC Japan 2008 at Makuhari Messe, Chiba. This robot is created in order to increase the interest of today’s Japanese children in science. As Murata notes that children in Japan has decrease their interest in science.
