Ok um this is a bunny robot
I made the head like a month ago and firday i desiced to do the body , took me like 4-5 hours to do the body xD was so hard
Yet not satisfied! i shouldnt made it robotish! should have been a normal cute plushie , but then again its a good try xD next time no robot , or maybe no body just head keychain or something
--------
Things I </3 about it is that.. its tooo flixibal and was supposed to be stiff =.= i blame the robotic arms and legs lol.
CIA's Office of Advanced Technologies and Programs developed the Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (UUV) fish to study aquatic robot technology. The UUV fish contains a pressure hull, ballast system, and communications system in the body and a propulsion system in the tail. It is controlled by a wireless line-of-sight radio handset.

This robot was a bit creepy because it always turned its head in the direction someones face was. It felt much more personal by trying to advertise to you by looking with it's cute big eyes into your from down there.

This is my first mecha-moc. I tried a new building-technique: My aim was to cover the mecha only with Flags, Road Signs and Large Figure Shield Holders. The basic structure consists of LEGO Technic parts and bars.
The building process takes a lot of time. After developing the uncommon technique and some BL orders I started building in april. For lack of time I could finished it as recently as now. The technique doesn't allows to build fast. It's like building something with LEGO Technic. But I really enjoyed matching LEGO System parts with Technic parts. I think it works very well, if you avoid studs. The appearance is very technically and the flags/roadsigns look like armouring. I plan to do some more stuff with that building technique.
But, is there somebody who builds with the same technique? I only know the Stealth Assault Fighter/Stealth Strategic Bomber of Pierre E Fieschi, which I really like.
So check out all the little Details on my mech and tell me if you like the style. Enjoy!

ESA astronaut candidate Raphaël Liégeois from Belgium during a robotics session as part of his basic astronaut training at ESA’s European Astronaut Centre, near Cologne, Germany.
The first building block of International Space Station robotics training in the curriculum of ESA’s 2022 astronaut candidate class is called GRAVI-T training.
During this session, they delve into generic robotic training, focusing on learning how to manipulate the Canadarm2 robotic arm.
Robotic arms on the Station are used to grab and berth cargo vessels such as Japan’s HTV and the Northrop Grumman’s Cygnus. They can also help astronauts during spacewalks by moving an astronaut strapped to the end of the arm to hard-to-reach places on the outside of the International Space Station. It can even replace a spacewalk altogether.
Under the supervision of instructors at the Astronaut Centre, the candidates use the Dynamic Skills Trainer, a console training tool, to operate the robotic arm within a simulated environment.
In addition, the astronaut candidates undergo virtual reality sessions to gain a better understanding of the 17-metre-long robotic arm's operations aboard the Station.
ESA’s newest class of astronauts, including Sophie Adenot, Rosemary Coogan, Pablo Álvarez Fernández, Marco Sieber, and Raphaël, commenced basic astronaut training in April 2023. The group was selected in November 2022.
The one-year training provides an overall familiarisation and training in various areas, such as spacecraft systems, spacewalking, flight engineering, robotics and life support systems. They go through survival and medical training before receiving ESA astronaut certification in spring this year.
After certification, they will move on to the next phases of pre-assignment and mission-specific training, paving the way for future missions to the International Space Station and beyond.

Michael Bay has a lot to answer for really doesn't he? Just the other day I made the unfortunate decision to watch the 2007 Transformers film starring none other than Hollywood oddball Shia LeBeouf. I shan't be watching any more. Even though I started with pretty low expectations to begin with to say I was disappointed when the end credits rolled would be an understatement.
Despite the fact that Michael Bay seems to think that explosions and CGI can cover up a paper thin plot my main problem was with the design of the robots. Perhaps it's just me but I thought they looked dreadful. I would have encouraged the military to blow them all up. And it would have given Bay a good excuse for even more explosions. The last time I saw a Transformers film was the 1986 animated Transformers: The Movie featuring the classic 80's style of Autobot and Decepticon. Now, perhaps I'm just being sentimental but if you ask me that's how you design an alien robot. Anyway, i'm rambling. This piece is our reply to Michael Bay. Now let's just see what he gets back with - and I hope it's not another sequel...

My humanoid robot that used to play in the office is now entering retirement at the Computer History Museum. She would shuffle cups and Hot Wheels, and the programming was performed by simply moving the arms to perform the desired tasks.
I called her Robot Dawn. She was the very first sale for Rodney Brooks’ Rethink Robotics.
And now, after my donation to CHM, they sent me a sneak peek from an upcoming publication of theirs.
Remember how I said I was building a robot for engineering? Well here it is! We just had the final competition on Saturday, so I figured I'd upload a picture while saving them to my computer for the project. I know this thing can do a lot, even if it doesn't look like it, or if it didn't act like it during the competition. :P
I can further explain what the robot does/did if anyone wants me to. Otherwise, I don't feel like writing that out right now. :P
Some of my robots went on a rare outing this weekend to guest/exhibit at Barley (Pendleside) Lancashire May Bank Holiday model engineering show.
This B9 is a vintage Masudaya 1:5 scale body shell c1986. An entire pack of cotton buds with half a tin of cellulose thinners saw the original brushed grey paint stripped off, followed by a full respray.
He now has an Arduino UNO controlling his chest rotation servo and base drive, and Tenacontrol voice and lights with additional transistors driving filament amber grain of rice bulbs in the finger lights, along with separate square red, green & yellow LEDs in the chest plate.
Hear him - www.flickr.com/photos/wcrpaul/41240394244/
Control is via an infra-red receiver in place of his soil sampler. He has dual onboard 6 volt & 9 volt power from 2.5 AH NiMH battery arrays.
Use the notes functionality to tag the robots, provide links to their Wikipedia entries. This image is not mine, found it on the internet, but uploaded to flickr just to help tag all the entries.
My first ROBOT camera. I have been aware of their existence but have never held one.
It is weird - it is tiny AND heavy - it is insanely well made (a large part stainless steel) and surprisingly, a joy to use.
The format is 24x24mm which gives in excess of 55 frames on a roll of film.
The motordrive will allow you to shoot as fast as you can push and lift the finger from the shutter release (I can easily do 4 frames/sec - that is more than the 3.5 frame/sec of my Nikon MD-12 motordrive!).
With a fully wound spring, the camera can shoot 25 frames before needing to be rewound.
The Robot Star is largely based on the pre-WWII Robot II - with provisions for rewinding standard film cassettes in camera and X flash sync.

I bought this awesome "lubot" (a steampunk robot) from french artist "Lubots Créations", at "Japan/Geek Touch" convention (in Lyon, France). I was fascinated by his work !
The new Imperial 'Exterminators'. Upgraded weapons and canopies. New armor + a more menacing look. An upgrade from this. Coalition infantry regiments fear these mechs more than anything.

Clockwork Robot - Dr Who Exhibition, Land's End, Cornwall - Sunday February 17th 2008.
Episode Four: The Girl in the Fireplace
Clockwork Robots
Doctor Who
Race: Clockwork Robots
Type: Mechanical droids
Home planet: None
First appearance: The Girl in the Fireplace
The Clockwork Robots were created by a spacecrew from the 51st Century. When the ship was damaged, vital machinery was destroyed so they began to use the crew's body parts instead.
They managed to travel through time windows so they could meet Madame de Pompadoure to use her brain, only when she was at the right age though.
They had strange smiling faces and long black hair for their trips to France but were actually glass humanoid figures operated by space age clockwork technology.
They would break any clocks in the room to disguise their arrival and would slice open the parts of people where the organs could be found by their blades and saws in their hands.
The Doctor freezed them with ice guns but finally defeated them by destroying the time window causing them to break down. The Doctor managed to get back however by Madame de Pompadoure's fireplace.
ACTIVITY: underground show at Myour House called Robot Invasion
INSPIRATION: all those rave girls with multicolored dreadlock extensions
OUTFIT: American Apparel raglan jersey, thrifted Le Coq Sportif skirt
ACCESSORIES: vintage plasic belt with a found bandanna and pepper spray from the Army Navy Surplus on it, We Love Colors socks, Me Too ballet flats, DIY silkscreened "BPM" tote bag, Question Reality pin from an Earth Day vendor
HAIR: basically I took every ribbon I own, divided them roughly equally, tied them to hair elastics and wrapped them around pigtails. I'm wearing cheap plastic dollar store Hello Kitty hair bobbles, too.
