  1. rozzin's identicat ghost rozzin's identicat ghost Robotics

    After working in !robotics for 6 months, I no longer have any appreciation for why the humanoid form-factor is supposed to be interesting.

      Yeah, see—about 45 seconds into this, I'm getting tired of waiting for the #robot to #duckwalk across the room: http://ur1.ca/8z94w

      I think the top comment on that video sums up the problem. Although I like the "hello, my friend" to the fridge.

      I'd love a robot butler that said "hello, my friend" to the fridge and convinced it to hand over a soda—if the robot had *wheels*, please!

      Why not just give the fridge wheels? Or better yet, the soda.

      Real #robots *roll*. Locomotion by twiddling of legs is for organic precursors that don't have bits to twiddle.

      Wheels on robots is a good way prevent the robopocalypse. We can hide on the other side of anything on the floor or ground. #allterrain

      Real #Daleks have a whole 'nother interpretion of "levelling the playing-field".
