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.

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.
This and the Mobile Repair Facility were the result of a build session at Pete(legoloverman)'s place. The man has a lot of Lego.
Limited build time, but I'm pretty pleased with the results.
LDD/Bluerender Concepts. My version of a small B-9 (Stephen Pakbaz still has the best) and a couple of retro/style robots.

Robot, pas robot ? En un seul dispositif muséographique, le visiteur appréhende ce qu'est un robot… et ce qu'il n'est pas !
Theodore Robot is unconvinced that he is a robot. He thinks he hears his beating heart, but people tell him that it is just a clock inside of him making tics. He doesn't think this is so because when he was watching the movie Beaches, he could hear the beating speeding up during the sad parts and his eyes started to rust due to moisture. When Theodore Robot is done with his robotic duties each day, he sits in soft grass and looks at the birds and contemplates existence. When he tires of contemplating existence, he thinks about chocolate cake and how it must taste. Being a robot, he doesn't need food, but boy does he want some chocolate cake.
I simply just uploaded this video to be able to upload the creation to mocpages .... just shows some functionality
Rampax is from a series of six 5" plastic robots made by CGGC in Italy. They were sold in kit form and had to be assembled. I don’t know when they were first produced, but I was given the individually boxed Rampax in 1985.
The six robots were not completely different, but shared components such as arms, legs and feet. These pieces were all interchangeable and it seems that some were randomly packed out, so the makeup of specific robots was inconsistent. Each robot had two distinct, spring launched weapons. The long weapon for the bent right arm protruded from the elbow and hooked in place; pushing up on the hook launched the weapon. The left arm had a mechanism in the shoulder that held the weapon in place while the arm was down, but launched the devise when the arm was raised.
The robots were also distributed in France by a company named Remus, which sold them in two sets of three. The French packaging was quite different from the Italian boxes that I’ve seen, but the plastic parts were still molded in Italy. Again, I have no idea of the original time line for these, but I obtained an incomplete set in 1991.
Five of the robots - Drakis, Torang, Fergus, Argon and Rampax - kept their names for both Italian and French issues. The sixth one, originally Satan in Italy, was renamed Mirox in France. I guess that the French didn’t want kids playing with the devil.
I did custom work on my Rampax robot. I added leg gears, hinge covers and insect pin antennas, and did a complete paint job.
*sigh*
My very last Tip-In with a twist journal page. I did a little bit of stalking on my partner and found out she likes robots, ha! How fun was this guy AND I got to play around with some more of those develish little tags too. See a trend here? Hehe.
All handpainted with acrylics and prismacolor pencils except for the tags.
Just put the finishing touches on this last night - free robot embroidery patterns! The file includes six assorted robotic creatures, including this fellow.

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.

The robot guide at The Ukiyo-e Museum ( Japanese Art 17th-19th Century) in the basement of The Toyoko Inn Narita Airport , strange experience to stand and listen to this little guy as he moved around " spooky"
I crocheted a robot for my nephew to match the pjs I got him for xmas :) No pattern, just made it up as I went along.

"Robot Monster is a 1953 American black-and-white science fiction film made in 3-D by Phil Tucker and distributed by Astor Pictures. It is frequently considered one of the worst films ever made.Years later, Robot Monster was included as one of the choices in the book The Fifty Worst Films of All Time."

Undefinierte Lichter, unbekannte Laute schallen vom Meer zu uns herauf. Was ist das? Auch das Bild war schwer zu interpretieren. Wir haben uns auf Roboter vor der Küste entschieden. Sie scheinen sich von Dingen im Meer zu ernähren. ;)
LDD/Bluerender Concepts. Quick attempts of some film robots; Marvin from Hitchhikers guide to the Galaxy and maria from Metropolis. Not sure I'll really build these yet. They need more work.
