Edit: Are those gas shocks by any chance?
Looks to be just surgical tubing.

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
That is truly awesome.
I think alot of people are going to be eating their words about robots not doing more than 4 hurdles a match.
I think I need to go lie down now.

Good song too.

Re: Robonauts 118 - Unveiled '08
Is it just me or is that the NASA International Space Station Assembly Building? where components are assembled and tested before sending them to the VAB?

Awesome cienematography! Wow that robot must keep the operator AND the driver busy with so many DOF!

I can't tell exaclty, what are you using for energy storage? Elastic cords of some kind it looks like?

Cool!

The building you are thinking of is at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. The Robonauts are in Houston.


This is on sick robot. Very little defense is allowed to be played this year, so I can see 118 going through LSR unscathed and unstoppable. (No offense to my other friends in texas). This will be a very good year for the crab drive, I was actually thinking the other day about how experienced 118 is at their drivetrain.
