Tokyo was heavily robotic research. Including one of the robotics company called ZMP which recently introduced Robocar based Linux operating system can be used to test the Autonomous Auto Technologies.
Robocar has a size of 17 inches and is bundled with AMD Geode LX800 as a processor, Wi-Fi 802.11 b / g / n, stereo CCD cameras, IR sensors 8, 3 accelerometer, Gyroscope and the laser beam. Robocar in the price range of $ 7,000. Robocar produced quite limited, for this year alone produced only about 200 units.
No wonder if it's in Indonesia marred by the issue of Ponari little shaman, capable of defeating the prestige of characters in medicine. In addition to the terms of treatments and drugs are expensive, healing also appears to be something that is now increasingly doubtful of the patients to seek treatment at the hospital. Not a few that we see on the occurrence of malpractice seems more and make us less trusting, if the treatment in Indonesia sufficiently qualified or not. So, what about the world of medicine abroad.
Not only in the field of computer or telecommunication, computerized technology was also able to touch the world of medicine. Abroad is currently being developed in which a robot doctor who implanted an artificial intelligence capable of menanganip problems of patients. This is not the first, but this could be regarded as the next generation of robot doctors. These robots have the ability as a doctor treating us like human beings.
But it seems a bit daunting when the guinea pig treatment here is you! Imagine you are treated by a specially programmed robot, but have never been able to walk ditesting whether properly or not. Well, to reduce these errors, the robot is intentionally provided doctors robotic patient simulators, the latest and greatest from Laerdal. This robot is very similar to humans and can be programmed with a variety of training scenarios to be a doctor who will be able to hone the skills of a robot doctor, and as bokena displays a sophisticated, this robot can be controlled via wireless, for its durability itself currently only able to reach 4 hours before eventually run out and die.
We have yet to get more information how many hundreds of thoughts that will set this Hosah group, but hopefully any further developments will be developed for the medical world.
Argonne scientists from the Department of Energy has just created an interesting technological creations. They created a dpapat mikrobot dancing. The size of the robot is only half a millimeter that can be merged and bring objects 4 times bigger than its size.
When observed with a microscope, mikrobot the millimeter scale can move the 'jaws' to move around a few times even moving objects and other objects move. Mikrobot is made of the microparticles and can not move themselves and driven remotely. Great robot is also able to repair themselves.
Mikrobot The move responds to a magnetic field nearby. They can form as the star and moving around. . Impressive is not it!
Although currently still in research stage, the results of the use of these robots can have multiple implications. Mini-robots can manipulate chemical reactions, take / make medical care to certain places in the body, removing the particles for further study or clean a surface.
Have you ever imagine that someday humans will have a twin (clone) are identical in the figure of a robot? Yes indeed difficult to imagine, and perhaps this may be just sort of engineering or trick someone just to fool many people. Yes legitimate people think so, but who would have thought, with the development and sophistication of today's robotic technology it seems nothing is impossible, is not it!
Human-like robots which can only be witnessed in a movie or science fiction stories, it seems about to be closer to reality. The problem originated from the collaboration that has been done by a group of scientists from Japan and Denmark, they reportedly had just successfully developed the latest Geminoid robot series of ultra-realistic android who in addition is designed in a figure similar to humans, the robot is also capable of expression, body movement and communicate like a human being. Yes indeed a remarkable achievement and deserves high appreciation course.
Although this is merely an experiment, but this proves that a robot that can be 100% similar to humans probably is not a story about a utopian or a mere figment. And as the development of robot technology from time to time, anything can happen later.
As what has been disclosed previously, the collaboration of Japanese and Danish scientists on their own within the scope of the development of a project that turned out Geminoid DK has lasted about one year. Geminoid robot itself was developed by Kokoro and Hiroshi Ishiguro by taking models of the human figure from a university professor Scharfe Aalborg, Denmark.
Prior to inhabit a lab in Denmark, said Geminoid robot must pass through stages of setting up and testing in advance is now done at the Japan Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute International (ATR) in Nara, Japan. Geminoid robot is said to be used to examine the level of emotional (emotional affordances) in human-robot interaction, the idea of thinking, and how certain cultural habits in the perception of a robot.
These are some of the problems faced by Hiroshi Ishiguro when he created a clone of the previous robot Geminoid HI-1 that figure is taken from the author himself (Hiroshi Ishiguro) and F Geminoid the figure is taken from a Japanese model in her early twenties. But the professor of Osaka University and group leader in the ATR, it appears refused when asked to provide information about his involvement with this project so far Geminoid DK.
As with other Geminoid robot, all the movements and expressions DK Geminoid robot driven remotely by an operator using a computer. Thanks to the application of motion-capture system block, there is, the robot can make facial expressions and head movements, and even moving his mouth though. 
You a fan of Gundam? Certainly familiar with Japanese robot figure that one ini.Gundam was published in the comics and anime films. The story is also quite interesting especially for those who really like stories about robots.
Well what happens if the craze will push for the creation of this Gundam Gundam figure with great size and obvious? Well, certainly wonderfully well. It's him that you can see at the celebration in Tokyo. Classic model RX-78-2 itself is constructed with a 1:1 scale. Too bad the only Gundam figure in Tokyo.
The development of the robot world is indeed capable of consuming our attention. It's great concepts created a robot that now because the point is to help people, lighten the work or performing any work that could hardly be done by humans.
Not inconceivable that at times of natural disasters like the earthquake in Padang some time ago that killed many lives in which many of the victims could have saved a life lost in vain because of the difficulty known to exist beneath the rubble pile that was difficult to trace if there were any casualties survive or not.
Of course this heavy task may be easier to do if we have a small surveillance robot that could slip in the crevices of buildings.
In Japan are now being developed hummingbird shaped robot which is when you see these birds is very small in size and weighs just less than 1 ounce. Hummingbird is known to be very small and flexible so that it can berputas around, flying back and forth quickly. Some researchers at Chiba University near Tokyo is currently carrying out experiments for the sake of making this a robot bird which the robot will be equipped with infrared sensors and cameras.
Less is more nearly 2 million USD has been spent to continue to develop the robot, it is estimated by 2011, robots will be able to fly and can reach dangerous places to rescue the building for use as a bird or the trackers. Hmmm, let's hope this bird robot project come to fruition soon, at least will be much useful for the human life course.
You are married and have a maid was certainly a hope to get a faithful housekeeper, not easily tired and under. There is an answer for this one needs is a ROBOT.
There's a new robot is sophisticated enough so that it can do some things that used to do domestic servants. Usually only berfungsu for a robot of sorts, but this time the robot is more sophisticated because one can wash glasses, dishes and cleaning floors with a vacuum cleaner.
This robot can learn to wash all kinds of household furniture, whether pot, cups, or dishes, because researchers at Tokyo University have devised a simulation video games and human motion capture for this robot. This robot also has been equipped with sensors to recognize its environment so it can move freely and do not miss waterproof gloves so that the robot is not defective merely hit the water.
Let's see the action the robot is in the following images:
Robovie is a cute robot dog with a heart-shaped form of the iPod Touch. Robovie MR2 sweeter than the larger sibling of Robovie R2, and small enough to put on the table. This robot has a height only 30cm (about 1 foot), weight 2kg (4.4 lbs), and even has tancapan / iPod Touch decks on his chest. The iPod can be used to perform updates or to control directly (or via the wireless game pad) and is equipped with a super-compact CCD camera, 2 microphones, and speakers for communication purposes.
This little robot has 18 degrees of freedom including the eyeballs moving (2 eyes x3; head x 3, 2 arm x4; waist x1), supported by 12 PROPO JR DS-326 servo motors, 4-281J VS Vstone servos, and 2 Futaba S3102 servos. This robot development began last year, and the ATR is currently considering a matter in which the robot is marketing to current pricing and availability is unknown.
This robot is perfect for a spy agency because the humor and the ability equipped mini CCD camera.
The robot was developed by ATR (Advanced Telecommunications Research Institute) Intelligent Robotics & Communication Labs of Japan.
What's so special about the robot QBO? Well the main, the robot is running on the Linux operating system and will offer its code as open source for the advanced programmer to use it.
TheCorpora Qbo robot manufacturers complements robots with various types of sensors, a high-def stereo webcam eye, ear microphone, and even mouth LED. Inside the belly lies the Mini-ITX motherboard and be able to connect internet via WiFi, Bluetooth equipped, an Intel Atom processor and NVIDIA graphics Ion.

The front is now being run by robots, who replaced waiters in serving the food. Staff at the restaurant robot includes two robotic receptionist or host, and six servants robots.
With the tables are arranged in a circular arrangement, a robot carrying your plate to the table using a track to move around the restaurant. Cooking is still done by human beings behind the scenes, but from the front looks like a restaurant run by the engine automatically aka robots. (source)
Have you ever heard the term roboearth? Roboearth in a language that is easy is a World Wide Web for the robot. Namely the storage of data where the robots can share information and learn from each other's behavior and their environment.
As the saying goes "experience is the best teacher", the purpose of Roboearth is to allow robotic systems to benefit from the experience of other robots, easier way to accelerate progress in cognitive abilities and behavior of the machine and especially to further refining and enhancing the interaction between humans and machines.
Roboearth include everything needed to draw together the relationship with the robot and the robot roboearth again. With the model of the world wide web database will be implemented with the functions of the Internet and intranets. It provides information needed for recognition (images, objects, models, etc.), navigation (maps, models of the world), and the intelligence services (annotation image, offline learning).

A mikrobot who could walk on water surfaces have been successfully created. The scientists said the Forum to make this mikrobot derived from insects that can walk on water surfaces, such as mosquito or spider water.
Mikrobot has a length of 6 inches and 10 have water repellent and two wires that act as feet to move this mikrobot above the water. This robot can walk, stand, even jumping over the water surface without sinking.
Mikrobot weighing 3.88 grams was able to walk on the water surface with a speed of 6 inches per second without sinking. This is the first robot that resembles an insect.
But recognize that the velocity of the insect mikrobot is still too slow. They still work to be able to increase the velocity of this mikrobot. If the robot already has the velocity, which is nice, and of course can be made cheaply, the researchers hope to use it to solve the problem of water pollution.
Mechwarrior you know it? The robot is controlled by the people in it? There are products called Kid's Walker robots that resemble real Mechwarrior but certainly there were no weapons in it. This robot products made for children by a company called Sakakibara Kikai.
These robots are about 5 1 / 4 feet and weighing less than 400 pounds. This robot is not actually running but has wheels so it is actually like a car but covered by the foot.
Prices robot is approximately 21000 USD or 200 million dollars neh. Unfortunately these products are made cuman 1 seed and have not planned for sale en masse because its function is only for promotional. (Source)
You've probably seen the robot HRP-4C beautiful before, and while it previously only able to move the upper body, now upgrades and improvements have been made so that the robot is now capable of holding his own on stage, singing and dancing with a man.
Does this replace the human dance partner in the near future? Probably not, but this is evidence a significant step forward in robotics and you can check out the video of the robot HRP-4C dancing following. (source)
One action figure in a film often makes many people in the world inspired to pour in the form of his works. Only six years ago after serving a movie Stealth, a Northrop Grumman company recently rumored to have successfully developed a type of robot's first stealth fighter in the world and given the name X-47B. Robot-controlled stealth aircraft without crew, has successfully completed the appropriate test flight for 29 minutes above the altitude of 5000 feet and landed smoothly at Edwards Air Force Base located in California, USA.
This type of robot X-47B is a top secret project company Northrop Grumman partnership with the United States Navy which has cost around $ 635 million, or about 6.35 trillion rupiah. Robots, unmanned jet aircraft has a range and greater power to perform the action takes off from an aircraft carrier, equipped with ammunition and bomb-controlled laser capable of refueling in the air.
Airworthy test that has lasted more than a year this is an initial step to demonstrate the latest figures from the type of robot aircraft's first stealth fighter jet in the world. Investigate and prosecute have reportedly found a new type of robot will be used for military purposes in 2013 to come.
X-47B is capable of flight with a top speed of "high subsonic", which he says is much faster than with UAVs like the Predator and Reaper aircraft that have been there before. Both wings of the aircraft-like wings kalelawar has a length of 62.1 feet (18.9280 meters), maximum-charged 4500 pounds (2 tons more), equipped with a number of sensor systems and a range of more than 2100 nautical miles (3379.6224 km). Even more great again, robot fighter jet can be controlled remotely (remote) or further programmed for purposes of a particular mission.
Equipped with the ability to fly more than 40,000 feet, or about 12,192 feet, the robot can be used as spy planes or reconnaissance aircraft for the mission of intelligence, precision attack and detect ballistic missiles that exist. Prior to peberbangan tested using aircraft carriers, robotic aircraft is also scheduled to be there will be no additional flight test again at the Naval Air Station Patuxent River.
In addition to this type of X-47B, there are reportedly still unmanned combat air vehicles that will soon follow the other tested the unmanned stealth fighter aircraft Taranis Britain. And reportedly will also be tested in the year 2011.
You who loved cats, but still anxious to maintain it? Of the many reasons why so many of us who choose not to keep animals at home. Besides the problem of time which may be a difficult thing we share with pets, whereas only time to yourself you still difficult to precisely. There's also because animals sometimes even make the house a mess and rarely even made us allergic. Hmmm, would think again and again to care for the animal would not it?
But it seems no longer a constraint for those who like cats and would still like to have it at home as a friend to play at leisure time. Do not be afraid to the constraints above, because now the Sega Toys has another solution that ciamik, though the later you have is not another ordinary domestic cats.
This has to so many time that the cat out of artificial Sega Toys should not stuffed doll, but also ordinary. This he called Dream of Venus Cat. This copy cat will react when you touch or pet cats should ordinary. Of course you do not need the hassles of providing food, because these artificial animals certainly do not need the original food. You also would not have felt allergic to this cat, because cats are really different from the usual cats, although briefly will look the same. Well, you are interested to maintain it in your home?
Job organizing the garden or mowing the yard of the ordinary man is often done manually, it seems that now will soon be replaced by machines. Yes, it's undeniable. Over the past few years with quite an impressive roll out its products, Husqvarna is now reportedly has just added one more to the ranks of the fleet robotic lawnmower, or better known as the robotic mower engine model with paved latest creations named Automower 305.
Unlike some of the sibling that is designed to assist and meet all your real estate needs of the job is bigger, Automower 305 can be reserved for the work in lower-middle-scale or home-based jobs. For the owners of the terrace, garden or yard that is somewhat limited with a total area of 500 square meters can reportedly use the services of this sophisticated lawnmower robot.
Given the facts, machine-made robotic mower from Husqvarna can move dilandasan ground with speed 35 cm / s. And it certainly will very likely be able to do diving work is done manually because human beings can be resolved within a period of rapid and precise.
To avoid any unwanted things, robotic lawnmower is equipped with several advanced security features and functioning properly. Owned security features here involves the use of a PIN security and a built-in alarm function to prevent theft of the robot from the parties who are not responsible. Its own weight about 7 pounds, and is certainly heavy enough for people who intend to take it instead!
This device is supported by the presence of Li-Ion battery / 1.6 Ah is able to turn on or functioning of the movement of autonomous activity of about 40 minutes for charging (charge) of energy for 150 minutes. Since the charging process is fully automated, the rest of this robot does not need human help at all. Coupled with the presence of a wire 150 meters and 200 staples that allow users to do the set-up perimeter cuts are quick and easy course.
Regarding the price per unit itself, Automower robot lawnmower model 305 has been ready for the market with prices quite expensive at 1490 euros or about 18 million dollars. Hm, you want him?
WowWee has some new competition, but its appearance should not surprise many people. Now WowWee has just launched its latest pair of friendly robots that are expected to become an idol for the kids or even adults.
A robot that was first introduced back at CES in January 2009. Both WowWee WowWee Joebot Roborover and now available in the market. And for those interested in the existence of this robot, can directly order it with the price range of $ 79.99 (about 800 thousand dollars) or $ 99.99 (about 1 million rupiah).
One version of its mini WowWee was only valued at 15 USD (around 150 thousand dollars) per unit. While the second option the robot model is basically an action figure. In the presence of two versions of the robot, which can certainly still make you feel you enjoy the game a little longer than your average toy robots in general. This was despite the presence of each of the remote control or operate autonomously, play various games and in this case Roborover, traverse rough terrain and inclines.
The other day we have seen the robot "car" collision avoidance BR23C from Nissan. The robot roll along with solitude and take a cue in order to survive in the wild CEATEC Japan.
Yes, it's almost time for CEATEC again. And robots that appear to look like a Nissan that is consistent with a new bag, as well as a proper name: Eporo.
However, the robot now looks like a fish model, which not only provide greater peripheral vision (the offering of a pair of laser range search) to avoid obstacles, but allows travel in groups (clusters) were similar to the school of fish alone.
Given such an idea, it is also possible that one day robots could be used to transport passengers and stay close together to reduce congestion on city streets. Thus, in turn, is expected to reduce the number of accidents on the highway.
