Provide robotics news and robot collections, Automation device and equipment, also future technology
Smooth motion of robots like human or animal will be happen soon. Scientist at NanoTech Institute, University of Texas at Dallas have developed Carbon Nanotube Aerogel Muscles, which stronger than steel, and the best is its superelastic. As reported on science, NanoTech Institute they have demonstrated a fundamentally new type of artificial muscle, consisting almost exclusively of carbon nanotubes, which can operate at extreme low temperatures …
…ervised by Dr. Gary L. Lebby, a Research Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering. This robot length is 450mm, foot length 240mm, ankle height 90mm, and toe length 70mm. This robot uses an artificial muscle and has walking speed just like a normal human speed in a domestic environment. [youtube eZUfVivcLuA]…
Developed by Festo this Fluidic Muscle is a new kind of Pneumatic drive. The bionic muscles constructed with a hollow elastomer cylinder attached with aramid fibers. When this muscle fills with air the diameter will increase and the length is contrast. It enables a fluid and elastic movement. The use of this muscle not only allow motion sequences that approach the human movement in kind of kinematics, speed and strength but also sensitivity. t…
ABIOMED has been developed and tested this artificial heart for three decades. Named AbioCor this artificial heart is the world’s first completely self contained replacement heart. ABIOMED creates AbioCor in order to supply heart when someone has a heart failure, this way people could gain the ability, again, to enjoy life. AbioCor designed to keep up human’s circulatory system. It was said that this artificial heart used in end stage of heart…
It was included as one of the 2009 Best Inventions by TIME magazine, The Jaipur Foot. While manufacturer tried to make invention that could help people to walk like normal people with artificial leg that close to real leg, they forget that some people that need this help will not have much money to pay those technology or even imagine it. But in 2009 a team of Stanford engineering students designed an artificial limb that was affordable for pe…
This is the newest robotic invention from the land of robotic Japan. It seems that tsunami and earthquake cannot stop Japanese from their creativity in creating such innovation. It was shown up in the opening of Digital Content Expo which was placed at Tokyo. This artificial arms was able to make clapping sounds just like human makes such sounds with their palms of the hands. The developer called this artificial clapping hands robot as Ondz. The…
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…
In 2004 Ossur in partnership with MIT developed an artificial intelligent prosthetic knee system named RHEO KNEE. Called to be intelligent with the ability in smartly adapt to people’s walking style and environment. This intelligent knee works smoothly with the support of microprocessor swing and stance knee system. This system independently learns the way user walks, responses and recognizes the speed, weight, and environment. It adapts quick…
…ity who made robot that built with cloud structure and used light weight carbon with helium. This remote controlled robot will be controlled from distance to shield 82.250 spectactors at Lulanic Iconic Stadium from heat. This artificial cloud robot will be arranged to move following the sun so that spectators will always be covered from heat. After selected as the 2022 World Cup Host Qatar worked quickly to create system that able to reduce heat….
The Music Playing Robot by Toyota is a continuously collective project by the Toyota in making the robot that assists the human activities. The robot developed to show kindness and intelligence. Toyota developed this robot in using tools like trumpets, tubas, and drums. They acts with moving their artificial lips, using their arms, hands, and fingers in playing the tools just like what human used to do. There are two types of Music Playing Rob…
Here is one from many artworks that Star Wars fan could bid for their collection. This is an Adidas Star Wars Stormtrooper helmet. This Adidas Star Wars Stormtrooper helmet is made of Adidas sneakers, and in making this helmet, the artist known as Freehand Profit, more than a pair of sneakers used. This is a great collection that made from unusual material. Adidas Star Wars Stormtrooper helmet is made for the Star Wars Remix project. Star Wars Remix project is a website where fan could celebrate the creativity of Star Wars using materials around them. There are many artworks had been displayed in this site, and Adidas Star Wars Stormtrooper helmet is the first helmet that required more than one pair of Adidas sneakers.
This robot called Transphibian. A maritime robot created by iRobot that can be used for detecting mine, harbor defense, and surveillance. This robot is expandable and adaptable. Can move in surge and maneuver in tight space under water. What makes it different from others is that Transphibian can works in shallow place.
Here is one from few unique robotic applications in life where people use robot in musical orchestra. It said to be world’s first and only fully robotic gamelan orchestra. Gamelan is a set traditional music instrument from Indonesia; specifically it is Balinese and Javanese traditional music instruments. As it was written in its site that there is no impossibility that human could take advantage of robotic in everyday aspect of life including in music. This robotic orchestra is a great transformation that tells joyful of music. This Gamelatron Robotic Orchestra is a collaboration project of The League of Electronic Musical Urban Robots (LEMUR) and Zemi17: A. Taylor Kuffner.
Meet the Thai robot named Yumbo. Yumbo is the latest robot waiters from Thailand. The latest robot waiters Yumbo developed by CT Asia Robotics. The latest robot waiters Yumbo is still in the development process, this robot projected to be cheaper than any preceding waiter robots. This robot carries tray through restaurant just like a real waiter. Supported with infrared cameras the latest robot waiters Yumbo is able to avoid collision. Yumbo also programmed to be attractive robot where it can express many expressions. It can meet and greet customers with the support of voice recognition technology.
Bellow photos are school photographic project with “light” theme and given title SMTK 01. This is a school project at HS-Augsburg. There are three robots as the characters on the photo. The photos create a story where SMTK 01 looks for his mate the PH88 robot. The photos combined robotic and light in arrange the story. From this school photo project it is clear that robotic has developed into lots of field in today’s world.
Here is one unique concept of restaurant that probably you should try if you were travelling to China. The restaurant located in Jiang the Shandong Province of China and named itself the Dalu Rebot Restaurant. Dalu Rebot could serve about hundred of customers with the help of robots as their receptionists and waitresses. Totally there are eight robots in this restaurant. There are two receptionist robots, two drink serving robots, two small serving table robots, and another two robots. As you could could see from the pictures bellow there are patterns on the floor that robot will take follow.
