 Part of Gracious Professionalism is the Professional bit. Doesn't matter if you're a volunteer or a staff member, a failure of this level in the real world would result in getting fired. - [more] |

Re: TED talk on "Robots for Humanity" - 5 stars
I just finished watching it! Actually, I found out about it on their website. After watching this, I realized the wide spectrum of possibilities for robotics. I an now inclined to making some sore of mouse pointer that allows him to use nothing but his eyes! Not only would that be good for people with accessibility options, but it would be useful in piano class!
 . Also, the AR drone is expensive. I wish to reduce the price of something like that while giving a higher quality and a greater battery life than just 18 minutes per battery!In short, technology is advancing and we, robotics students, need to make it advance even faster and help those who need assistance. We also need to make a substitute for the car that is safer and easier to use, and not limited to only adults!
