[ Starship ] I adore this little DIY walking robot- with modular feet and little dials to let you easily adjust the walking parameters, it's an affordable kit that's way more nuanced than most. It's called Bakiwi, and it costs €95. A squee cover made from feathers or fur is an extra €17. Here's a more serious look at what it can do: [ Bakiwi ] Thanks Oswald!
[ MIT ]
[ HaptX ] Yardroid is an outdoor robot "guided by computer vision and artificial intelligence" that seems like it can do almost everything. These are a lot of autonomous capabilities, but so far, we've only seen the video. So, best not to get too excited until we know more about how it works. [ Yardroid ] Thanks Dan! Since as far as we know, Pepper can't spread COVID, it had a busy year. I somehow missed seeing that chimpanzee magic show, but here it is: [ Simon Pierro ] via [ SoftBank Robotics ]
[ Hod Lipson ] Thanks Fan! We all know how much quadrupeds love ice! [ Ghost Robotics ]
[ Norlab ] They've got a long way to go, but autonomous indoor firefighting drones seem like a fantastic idea. [ CTU ]
And your word of the day is whiffletree, which is "a mechanism to distribute force evenly through linkages." [ DART Lab ] Thanks Raymond!
[ FZI ] Thanks Fan! iRobot CEO Colin Angle threatens my job by sharing some cool robots. [ iRobot ] A fascinating new talk from Henry Evans on robotic caregivers. [ HRL ]
[ Team AVATRINA ] This five year old talk from Mikell Taylor, who wrote for us a while back and is now at Amazon Robotics, is entitled "Nobody Cares About Your Robot." For better or worse, it really doesn't sound like it was written five years ago. Robotics for the consumer market – Mikell Taylor from Scott Handsaker on Vimeo. [ Mikell Taylor ] Fall River Community Media presents this wonderful guy talking about his love of antique robot toys. If you enjoy this kind of slow media, Fall River also has weekly Hot Dogs Cool Cats adoption profiles that are super relaxing to watch. [ YouTube ]
