Here is some robot poo look want happens when you don't clean up after your robot. I found this on my floor what a sight to see haha lol.
I had a photoshoot with Robots and Butterflies last weekend. Check them out: myspace.com/robotsandbutterflies
SISYPHUS is a robot that learns to crawl using a simple AI algorithm called reinforcement learning. The robot tries random actions at first and learns if it is moving forward or backward. Over time it connects actions that move it forward.
A cool robot who could walk around, fall on his ass, and stand himself up.

Robotic hand controlled by thought: A robotic hand has been successfully connected to an amputee, allowing him to feel sensations in the artificial limb and control it with his thoughts...
Isn't it so incredible? For sure we will see this as an investment opportunity to improve many lives. These hair-thin electrodes is the stunning part. Currently it convey basic electric signals, such as muscle to move into direction in mind form.... once the technology will be refined it be able to send more complex signals through the electrodes, such as light input that could actually be interpreted by the brain as vision. There are numerous possibilities. It is already a huge step versa creating an artificial nervous system in the future...

Unusual German classic.Dates from 1930's in different models. The earlier ones, 1,2 etc.use 24mm x 24mm frame size on 35mm film. The film transport is operated by a very powerful spring. The mechanism must be wound by the large knob on the top plate, this can be doubled by fitting 2 (or more? ) springs one above the other. The film must be loaded in darkness into special cassettes.Do NOT buy a camera without these cassettes !! The shutter is a cylinder with a standard hole through it , different speeds achieved by slowing or accelerating the traverse of the hole.. Speed set by the knob on the left side of the camera front, The interchangeable lenses were of high quality,as was the build standard. This example is fitted with a Zeiss Tessar. The camera was apparently much favoured by the wartime German Luftwaffe, and some in black are engraved ' Luftwaffe Eigentum', = ' Property of the Air Force'
Ambassador Miller joined 30 enthusiastic students at the American Center for a U.S. Embassy and Robo Lab jointly hosted Robotics Fair to promote STEM education during Computer Science Education Week. Participants showcased their own creations, which included a spider robot, a human intrusion detection system, an Arduino weather station, and an automated street light system, and shared their innovative ideas with each other. Visit the American Center’s MakerSpace to participate in hands-on activities like this and learn how innovation and invention can be used to solve everyday problems.

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.

Basically just an excuse to abuse LAB color and play with photoshop some more. I didn't like the photo enough to do anything with it originally. But I like how it turned out. The original is here for the interested.
Some background:
The Space Defense Robot (SDR) Phalanx was the final Destroid designed during Space War I to act as a fleet defense mecha. After the space worthy conversion of the CVS-101 Prometheus and the SLV-111 Daedalus carriers, these ships were docked with the SDF-1 Macross and it became clear that this new gigantic vessel required a special mecha unit for medium range defense.
Development of the Phalanx began during the war in July 2009 and quickly reached rollout in December of that year, as it was based on proven segments. Roughly 20 Phalanx destroids were built aboard the SDF-1 Macross shipboard factories.
Armed with dozens of missiles in two large launchers, the Phalanx made an excellent semi-mobile missile-based battery (minor variants featured armaments such as a head-mounted gatling gun, or different sensor arrays). During the final battle of Space War I against the Zentraedi Bodol Zer Main Fleet, the Phalanx units were repainted and refitted to fire long-range reaction warheads for use against space warships. When the SDF-1 Macross broke through the Zentraedi fleet defenses and entered the interior of the massive Fulbtzs Berrentzs command vessel, all the Phalanx units unleashed their missiles and aided in the swift destruction of the enemy flagship.

Today's piece is something of a first (well, for us at least) and I'm proud to present our first double sided picture. It's on a 60 x 40cm wood panel and features laser engraving, stencils, spraypaint, paint pens, acrylic paint and laser cutouts. If that's not enough I even managed to come up with my own patented industrial-looking hanging contraption from the hardware shop so it can be easily flipped to give your walls a new lease of life. Drop us a line if you're interested.
One side features an austere looking lady robot with the words 'Morrigun combat unit v1.7' engraved on her metallic skin and the crow insignia of the Death's Head battalion on her forehead. She doesn't look entirely pleased to see you. All this under the legend 'We can see beauty in robots but it remains to be seen whether they will be able to see beauty in us'. I've got to admit it doesn't look good for humanity. I, for one, welcome our new robotic overlords...
The other side was inspired by the Massive Attack song 'Safe from harm' and features a man with lilac hair and eyebrows and his not-so-subtle stare which he's been flashing at a certain somebody for a good while now across the crowded dancefloor. He's giving it his best to re-enact the bit of the song summarised in the line 'I was lookin' back to see if you were lookin' back at me to see me lookin' back at you' which is handily engraved into the side of the piece just to clarify issues.
I really enjoyed making this so there'll hopefully be more to come in the way of 2 sided pictures...
Cheers
