USB Windup Robot Hub

robot usb hub 500x375 USB Windup Robot Hub
I love the way these little robots open up their chests to reveal a multi-port USB hub inside their little robot bodies. It looks like you’re hooking them up to a cardiac monitor or something. The other cool thing about these tiny robot overlords is that they are also windup toys. So it’s something for the kids and adults. Or adults at work and at play. Everybody loves a windup toy. Too bad I can’t find any purchasing information on these Japanese imports because they’re pretty neat.

Build it yourself Brush Robot

6a00d83451cbb069e20131100335e0970c-800wi

Instead of just letting another weekend go by without doing something great with your time.  Now you can pick up a kit to create your own bristle-covered companion.  The Brush Robot may not be a big talker, but he’ll listen to you all day long.  He has moving eyes and can sweep across the floor while you kick back and relax.  He requires 2 AAA batteries to keep him up and running.  You can purchase him for £15.00 or about $23 from the ScienceMuseum.

Robot babies

Researchers from the Machine Perception Laboratory at the University of California, San Diego have teamed up with Japanese robotics firm Kokoro Co., Ltd. to create a sophisticated humanoid robot modeled after a 1-year-old child.

Robot Baby

The baby robot was created to study how infants develop motor skills during the first year of life but no reason was give for the gigantic head design. In addition to providing clues about how infants interact with the physical world, researchers will also use the robot to explore how babies acquire and refine the ability to use nonverbal communication such as gestures and facial expressions. Maybe researcher can get more information from conducting survey on mother, nanny and child care teacher.

Robot Baby

As for now the baby is still in the developing stage. I prefer them to come out with a more realistic robot to train inexperience mother. That will be more useful.

First fully automated restaurant

Always getting bad services from the restaurant you visited. In the future when you visit restaurant like this one in Germany, no one will be serving you. Place your orders using the touch panel and then insert the chip card that is given to you. Your order is now recorded and send to the kitchen. The food that you order for will be prepare by a chef who will later place the food on a rail and it will be automatically send to you. While waiting for the food you can continue to use the touch panel to surf the restaurant history or surf the internet.
