Re: Personal Robot Building
the original concepts of a robot, like B9 on lost in space back in the 60s, has been lost in the technolgy race
instead of one robot that can do lots of things in a human-like manner, we now have lots of little robots that do one thing answering machines PDAs that act as schedulers and play cards with us cruise controls on our cars GPS that tell us where we are and how to get places cell phones that take messages and communicate with text, or photos Dish washers, clothes washers, garbage disposals, auto coffee makers computers that play chess and collect email for us all day so whats left for a robot to do? not much really. Deliver mail at school? pick up trays in the cafeteria? I would like to see a good lawn-mowing robot, which would be cool because it could be slow and take all day, and be really quiet a robot that walks the dog? Extra points if it comes with an auto pooperscooper :^) |
