Re: Robotics on The DailyShow with Jon Stewart

... sounds cool! I want to watch it but don't have regular access to a TV here. It's definitely great that CS is getting some mainstream media attention. The field has a lot more to it than "programming" or even building software.

We looked at his coal mine mapping robot in one of my classes... very interesting stuff indeed. They use a laser scanner to scan a cross section of the cave and by combining all of these slices create a full 3d model of the cave.
