… the beginner, and hidden depth to the experienced robot programmer. Robotics Book Details Using an intuitive method, Jones deconstructs robot control into simple behaviors that are easy to program and debug for inexpensive microcontrollers with little memory. Behavior-based robotics is quite simply the design of robots where there are no internal “models” of the environment. Instead, the robot’s action is state-machine driven via inputs gleane…

Coco New Platform Of Intelligent Robot

It said that, “Coco is the newest platform to join the humanoid menagerie.” This robot is quite different from the others robot in the humanoid robot group. Coco has the ability to walk around its area. Its small figure allows Coco a potential level of mobility not like another platform robot. Here, Coco group can investigate the effect of mobility on behaviors, social interactions, and intelligent. With this differences Coco has a possibility to be developed further.
Honda Very First Step Toward Humanoid Robot Development, EO (1986)

1986 Experimental Model O was a very first Honda step in developing humanoid robot. The image that you see above is the EO; this model was used in order to examine the principle of two-legged locomotion. The achievement of this prototype was walking in a straight line; even it took 5 seconds to take each step. Of course a very slow walked but a very big step in humanoid development.
