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.
I simply just uploaded this video to be able to upload the creation to mocpages .... just shows some functionality
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.

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.
A robot designed for working in the atmospheres of gas giants. Utilizes vacuum buoyancy technology to stay "afloat".
The MAIWR is a new type of technology developed by the United Kingdom Special Service. This Warfare robot is capable of flying, running, and walking underwater. It has a AV-AC (Anti-Vehicle Accelerated Cannon) mounted on it's right side, and an anti infantry machine gun with an extremely high rate of fire.
This machine also thinks like a human, except with no regards of danger. It is also programmed to obey orders.
This is just an upgraded verison of one of my previous creations.
I also just finished a Halo UNSC Marine, but I want to polish my story before I posted, for I am planning to make it a series.
Yours truly,

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.
"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."

Mark ‘Spoonman’ Petrakis and I are experimenting with new interactive storytelling ideas, from shadow puppets to poetic robots.
Our first experiment is ‘Ubu’s Dreams’, a shadow puppet show featuring Père Ubu, the hero of Alfred Jarry’s surreal plays at the turn of the last century. In this show, Ubu is constantly dreaming, interacting with archetypal characters from our collective unconscious.
This week, we focused on the structure of the space in which puppeteers would perform these stories, using the art cart I built for my maker art classes. To that end, we tried using a high desk where puppets can stand on thin vertical sticks and move back and forth, to grow large and small.
This set up felt comfortable for a couple actors sitting side by side, and gave us good range of motion. We placed a high-quality projector over our heads, to illuminate the top of the screen, so the show can be seen even in a crowded room where everyone is standing.
We also tried using a large mirror to reflect our projector, so that it could be placed right above our shadow screen, instead of five feet away. This saves a couple feet and makes our mobile theater more compact.
We plan to continue this experiment through the summer and perform a first puppet show during our Dada exhibit this fall at the Canessa Gallery in North Beach. I’m also developing a new maker art course that can use these techniques with our lower and middle school students.

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.

The robot lizards' IR detects a threat (me) and they flap their frills and flash their multicoloured LEDs as a bluff before making a dash for it. . Got these two kits for Christmas from the Grandchildren :-) !
