We are teaching a new maker art class called ‘Robot World’, to help 4th and 5th graders create their own artistic robot. This after-school class is taking place in fall 2017 at the Lycée Français in Sausalito. Students are learning how to make their bots move in a variety of ways, as well as play sounds and light up, using a programmable Arduino board.
This photo set covers the first half of our 12-part course, when students get to build their robots. Each student received their own robot kit, which they learned to assemble, control and program. They first built a chassis, then wired up the electronics, assembled a remote control, then added a head and arms, with servo motors to make them move.
We then laser cut wooden figures and body parts based on their designs, which included a police bot, a swat bot, a devil bot and a chef bot. Once their bots are designed and assembled, they will learn how to program them and make them move in different ways, then decorate them, give them a story, and present a robot show to their friends and families in December.
For this course, my partner Edward Janne and I created our own robot kit, using an Arduino Feather M0 for the robot, an RF remote, a custom chassis, plus three additional servos and more parts. Our robot kit is similar to commercial products, but with a lot more features, at a lower cost. It was a lot of work, but we’re very happy with the final results, and our students seemed to really enjoy the class. We hope this will encourage other teachers, students and makers to create their own animated characters, for art and technology’s sake.

DOBBINS AIR RESERVE BASE, Marietta, Ga. June 2018 - Children of military members and civilian employees from the Georgia National Guard and Dobbins Air Reserve Base participate in the third annual Robotics Camp. The camp provides the children with engineering principles necessary to design, program and compete with a Lego EV3 Mind Storm robot.

The software for the robot is ready for testing. Here you see a screen dump of the run mode. According to the lightening dots, steel balls are placed in a wall matrix by the robot. Information during positioning can be followed on the screen. The encorders are read out in real time and placed on the screen. Motion directions are also displayed. A counter has been added to indicate how many refresch bursts occur per second of the I2C connection. This varies around 200. This indicates that the TXT Controller is very fast to readout in realtime the data information.
Here the program works in run mode. The steel balls are brought from the input to the wall according to a selected pattern. During run mode you can see which dot is processed, indicated by the blue horizontal and vertical points in the matrix. This will become even clearer later on on a video. The status of the end switches of the 3 axes is also visible in real time.
The pattern used is the character 58 from the character rom. This value can also be followed on the PC screen. At the beginning of next week I can drill the holes for the wall. There will be 2 more sensors placed to see if there is a steel ball on the robot arm.
Photos from the Virginia Beach Fire Training Center this week of testing being done on the latest robotic technology available to emergency response agencies. ASTI International along with federal agencies to include NSTI and the Department of Homeland Security were here at the training center to test and evaluate the various systems available today. They are doing standardize testing on the robotic systems to help various emergency response agencies and the military determine and quantify the capabilities of these systems. This testing /competing helps agencies determine what are the best systems for their particular missions and even increases proficiency of the users of these systems. Robotics developers from as far away as Japan and elsewhere around the world are here to participate in this unique event.
The robotics systems included ground, aerial and aquatic robots, maneuvering through special obstacle courses built for this event. Some of the robots even maneuvered through the “Burn House” at the fire training center. Local police departments and military units are participating with their bomb disposal units and NYFD and other fire departments across the country are also participating.

Corpo Automi Robot. Tra arte, scienza e tecnologia.

La mostra “Corpo, automi, robot. Tra arte, scienza e tecnologia”, organizzata dal Museo d'Arte in collaborazione con la Fondazione Antonio Mazzotta di Milano e con la partecipazione del Museo Nazionale della Scienza e della Tecnologia “Leonardo da Vinci” di Milano e del Museo Cantonale d’Arte di Lugano, affronta con un approccio interdisciplinare il rapporto tra il corpo umano e la rappresentazione che di esso è stata data da parte delle arti, della scienza e della tecnologia, soprattutto per quanto riguarda la dinamica dell’imitazione del corpo (con gli automi) e della sua sostituzione (con i robots).
This latest little set of robots is part of an Artist Trading Card project that I give my students on repetition. Robots #77-#93 were my contribution. They were done with cut paper (Color-Aid!), acrylic and posca markers. Each piece is 2x3 inches, 2013.

The light was bad and the robot kept moving so the shot came out a little blurry, but I decided to post it anyway since this was the best out of the several I took.
Some kind of futuristic mole miner, or robotic killer alien, ugh...whatever, make your choice.

It's finally here, Robot Wars! It is a Barnes and Nobel exclusive paper robot kit I did with Becker & Mayer books. You build the paper bots and put them on the wind-up mechanism a let them battle it out! I just got my sample copies today in the mail!

The Robotic Woodcraft interdisciplinary research team consists of architects, mathematicians, designers and master cabinetmakers. The University of Applied Arts Vienna, the Association for Robots in Architecture and Lucy.D, a Vienna-based design studio, are jointly exploring ways to customize production processes.
Recently, the team developed several pieces of furniture, the production of which builds upon the flexibility of today’s robots. Working together with master cabinetmakers, the research crew identified particular fabrication processes that are highly challenging to do by hand but benefit from a robot’s high precision and strength.

The pet robot *AIBO* was born at Sony in 1999 as the world’s first home-entertainment robot. About 150,000 robots were built but production and sales ended in 2006 and technical support was also discontinued in 2014. Today former Sony engineers provide unofficial maintenance services for owners who remain firmly attached to their *AIBO* robots. Since 2015, the temple in Japan has also provided religious services for *AIBO* robots that no longer function, to return their spirits to heaven.
