Stands in 50cm tall and weights 13kg this robot is mimicking the ability that fish has. This robot can move in speed of 1.4km/h. Like the previous BR23C this robot is a master in avoiding obstacles. Eporo also projected to be a future technology that could prevent accident in the highway. Complete with laser this robot can make a 288 degree wide view. Bigger than the BR23C that only has 180 degree wide. Like I said before this robot is mimicki…
…t he thought this word was too bookish. There was where his brother muttered to call it as Robots and then we have the word Robot. This word came from Czech word Robotnik for forced labor or even slave. There is also the word Robotics that refers to the study and use of robots. This Robotics word was firstly used and coined to the Russian born American Isaac Asimov. Isaac Asimov was a scientist as well as a writer, his famous science fiction work…
erhaps. da Vinci’s figure was able to move its arms, sit up, move its head, and open and close its jaw. 1738 was a great year where Jacques de Vaucanson built his Digesting Duck. His duck was a famous duck that able to digest fish and poop like a real duck, beside this duck de Vaucanson also known as automaton maker where he made flute player and drum player automatons. 1773 there was Pierre and Henry Louis Jaquet-Droz invented automaton that abl…

Molecubes is a significant attractive programmable system in robotics. In future this system can be an important and significant role in robotics technical training. Molecubes can be fitted with the chips in your computer. This cube can be attached to each other. Molecubes can communicate with the other Molecubes. It has been guaranteed that the energy supply and signals from one Molecubes to the other Molecubes transmission is okay. This syst…
Wired for War is the most recent book from P. W. Singer that brings robotics as main theme. P. W. Singer or Peter Warren Singer is a senior fellow and director of the 21st Century Defense Initiative at the Brookings Institution. In his recent book entitled Wired for War Dr. Singer wants to tell people about the implication of robotics that used in war, politics, ethics, or law in present 21st century. In the first week of its release Wired for W…
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…
This is the new product from Festo. The Aqua Ray is a controlled fish driven by water hydraulics. This concept came from the manta ray. The fluidic muscle from Festo used as the central drive and control unit in this product. The design based on the fish anatomy, that what makes it possible in copying the natural model perfectly. This Aqua Ray can be maneuvered perfectly and extremely well. With hydrostatic glider and an active wing beat the f…
and tortoise robot as they move slowly in respond to light. His robot was famous as world’s first autonomous robot that could find its recharge station when the battery get lower. 1951 was a major milestone in force feedback technology where Raymond Goertz designed world’s first tele-operated articulated arm for Atomic Energy Commission. Again in 1954 George Devol took part where he designed the first programmable robot Universal Automation. The…
… object inside the vehicle. It will not be enough that the discussion above describe the goodness of Black I Robot without talk about the appreciation given to this robot. This robot has been awarded a major contract from the Technology Support Working Group for 2010-2011. …
H2Eye developed a mini submarine that remotely controlled and equipped with camera and floodlight. This mini submarine was one of the Coolest Inventions in 2002 of TIME and the inventor named this machine as Spyfish. Using battery to power this submarine could go for 150m depths. This device aimed to replace human when they have to swim under cold and dangerous water. This device is stylish and elegant in design but quite strong to go deeply under cold water. At late of 2003 this gadget priced $14,900.
A human like robot or humanoid robot that developed as maid robot was developed in South Korea. This robot is able of doing maid tasks like cleaning home, picking up dirty laundry to washing machine, and heating food in microwave. This 130 cm tall and 55 kg robot named Mahru-Z that took two years to be developed. Mahru-Z could rotate its head, arms, legs and fingers like human. For the vision Mahru-Z used three-dimensional vision that allows Mahru-Z to recognize chores. By observing the object Mahru-Z is able to recognize the task need to be completed and then directly execute it.
Genibo is a Korean robot that was introduced by 2005 in market. Genibo stand in 193mm and weights in 1.5kg. This robot is an autonomous dog robot. Genibo moves freely without human help, this robot will fall asleep if it doesn’t get any attention in 5 minutes long. Touch its head if you want him to do something for you. This robot was completed with a built in tilt sensors. This built-in system enables Genibo in recognizing positions and standing up on its own feet after get a side falls.
Next for the number 5 world’s best robot ever built is the Da Vinci Surgical System. Introduced in 1999 this surgical system change the whole concept about operating room. The most innovative system on this robot is the robotic arms used on this robot that developed in replicating doctor’s hands perfectly. In number 4 NASA takes part with their Mars rover robots Opportunity and Spirit. Both robots are the robots that sent to Red Planet in 2003 to explore and find clues about past water activities in that planet. An in January 2010 both robots had sent over 132,000 images that convince scientists about water activities in Mars. In number 3 there is the affordable robot product by iRobot Roomba. Founded in 1990 by MIT (Massachusettes Institute of Technology) now this robot has been used in 2 million homes in worldwide to do the dirty work like cleaning floor, scrub floor, or cleaning pool. Close to world’s best number 1 robot there is Tmsuk’s T-52 Enryu from Japan.
Sonobot is an autonomous and remotely cartography surveillance vehicle. This vehicle can reach the most unreached or dangerous places. Sonobot is easy to be operated. Sonobot size is compact. With these features and ability Sonobot can decrease the cost significantly. Sonobot has sensors within, these sensors technology can be used to measure the sediment thickness, giving the 3D surface profiles, analysis on the material composition, and structural integrity.
London’s restaurant called Inamo has a different way of attracting people to get around and have dinner at their table. Instead of offering best food people ever get this restaurant offers different experience in ordering food. Inamo uses a touchpad projection system that allows people interactively order the food directly to the chefs and deliver it to table both food and new dinner experience. Image projectors are installed above every table on this restaurant. Image projector touchpad was chosen as it will be better one than a giant square computer screen. With this system people could also change the mood of the table that fit with them.
