  1. Lego my eggo by dotslashconfig · · Score: 4, Interesting · on Korean Bipedal Robot Kit

    This robot reminds me a lot of the build-it-yourself Lego machines thay have been produced for a number of years now. The kits provide you with the base legos, along with motors, gears, and a nifty computer interface device that lets you write programs for a robot to execute.

    The legos were a lot of fun, but the batteries for the remote/receiver never lasted that long.

    This could be a nice next-generation version of the lego system, or it could turn into (brace yourself) this.

  2. Now we know... by node+3 · · Score: 0, Offtopic · on On Microsoft's Embedded DevCon Keynote

    Robots running Windows?

    You could have put a warning, now we know the secret behind I, Robot.

  3. Re:Asimov by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 0 · on NASA Abandons SimCIty Microwave Power Concept
    The earliest I've seen this power source suggested was in Asimov's I, Robot. Unfortunately, I don't have a copy on me to check the dates ;)

    Don't Worry in a few weeks we can watch Will Smith to see if he gets jiggy with solar power in I, Robot.

  4. iRobot? by Felinoid · · Score: 3, Insightful · on A Piece-By-Piece Guide to the Most Advanced Bots

    Something frightening when iRobot starts violating the 3 laws of robotics before it's even built.
    (Military application would violate "Cause harm" and "alow harm by inaction")
    (Not exact quotes of course I'm being lazy)

    Robot friend? So I finnally get to have a happy chearful elevator that thanks me every time I enter it? Or better yet a paranoid android.

    Here's your robots. Big Willie style!

  6. Wait for the movie by glorf · · Score: 1 · on Sony Claims First Running Humanoid Robot

    If someone is interested in robots and is somehow not familiar with the fictional works ralted to them by the most famous Sci-Fi writer ever, I doubt they are going to read them now. They may however go see the movie, which I have been surprised has not shown up as a story here, considering it would seem more news for nerds than spiderman.
