Austria is a country with about 8 millions of people population and about 20,000 of them are victimized by stroke every year. Stroke happens because there is a damage of the central nervous system that reduces people’s motor functions. In order to get stroke victim better some therapy treatments needed. Here robotic could be something valuable in shorting the therapy processes and increasing the life quality. Amadeo this robot called is a modern mechatronic rehabilitation device that used for patients with motor disorders in hands or fingers. Amadeo developed by Tyromotion GmbH where Graz University of Technology also gave their hands to developed Amadeo.
Here at WTF Costumes you could see the available robotic costume of Halloween collection that available on the internet. Some are funny, well designed, attractive, and crazy. From kids with a robotic suit and retro robot to the Asimo robot costume for Halloween are available in this site. Some are trying to mimicking the famous available robot and some costume are a funny original robot costume. Here you can see for more funny pictures and story about the costumes.
This robot can learn how to make realistic human facial expressions. Called as Einstein, this robot creates asymmetric random facial movements to explore face while the computer measures the expression and then has learned expression output. This unique robot head has about 30 facial muscles, each moved by a tiny servo motor connected to the muscle by a string.
This is the real hand robot that will help handicap people. The Elu2 Hand is a hand robot that has the speed movement just like human hand has. This make the robot becomes ideal to be performed in daily environment life. Later this robot can be use as the research or as the medical application.
Robot always linked to something that will destroy our world or killed human. All of that we get from science fiction novel or movie, but Anna-Karin Bergkvist has some different perspective about robot. Anna would like to show her conceptual design of four legged, extendable planting arm and head, and a body that used as sheet carrier of tree planting robot. This robot should be built in small size for efficient movement around new planted sheets or given ability to destroy competing vegetations. As friendly environment robot this robot will be powered with forestry waste and steam. 320 sheets will be carried by the robot and be planted on target places.
ASORO Mika was deployed in World Cities Summit at Suntec Singapore from 29 Jun to 1 July 2010. Mika is a robot that used to assist family in home environment. Mika could identify different objects in the house; this makes Mika projected to improve the quality of life of a family. This robot can perform some intelligent actions. Mika could perform “go and get” and carry operation. Mika can be ordered to go and get you a cup coffee. Mika stands in 1.5m tall and weights 70kg.
