Interview: iRobot Scooba 230 | 11 Feb 2011
We gave you the rundown on iRobot’s new Scooba 230 back when it was first announced in January, but we got to see it in person at CES. First impression: it’s damn tiny. If you’re familiar with the cleaning habits of the Roomba, the Scoob...

Interview: Derek Dotson on Pleo Reborn | 10 Feb 2011
Innvo Labs was out in force at CES 2011, the last few videos from which I’m still messing with. I know, I know feel free not to tip me this week. Anyway, I got some cute pics of their new Pleo Reborn plus 10 minutes with Innvo’s COO Derek Dots...

This Robotic Dragonfly Flew 40 Years Ago | 09 Feb 2011
This is a robotic dragonfly. If I told you that some company had just invented it and it was flying around today, you’d probably be impressed. Instead, I’m going to tell you that it was developed by the CIA and was flying in the 1970s. And not...

Wondering what a $15k telepresence robot can do for you? WONDER NO LONGER. With the help of a 4G wireless hotspot, this QB wandered out of the Anybots office into downtown Mountain View looking for a snack. A mile later, it found a Red Rock Coffee and ord...

Bionic Hamster Walking Machine (Of DOOM) | 07 Feb 2011
Hamster powered robots are something of a running joke, but Crabfu (you remember him, right?) has managed to create a walking robot out of a kit modeled originally on Theo Jansen’s Strandbeests that’s powered by a cute n’ fluffy hamster named ...

Robot Fighter Jet Makes First Flight | 07 Feb 2011
Northrop Grumman’s sexily badass X-47B unmanned combat air system made its first flight ever on Friday, circling a desert runway a couple times all by itself before successfully not crashing. Northrop seemed pretty happy about the way things went: &...

ROS 3D Kinect Contest Winners | 04 Feb 2011
This is maybe only peripherally (ha!) related to robotics, but it’s cool enough that I thought it was worth sharing… Besides, it’s Friday, and you deserve some nifty videos to watch. Anyway, we’ve posted before on all the cool thin...

Pay Attention To This Advertising Robot, Or Get Run Over | 03 Feb 2011
Yeah, it’s cute now ’cause this is the first one, but unlike a super annoying person, you can’t necessarily just tell a super annoying robot to leave you alone and rely on it to a.) understand you and b.) care. ‘There’s no ge...

Anybots QB Now Shipping | 02 Feb 2011
If you gambled on pre-ordering a QB telepresence robot from Anybots, you lucked out, since QB is now officially shipping, and you’ll get your robot this week. Ordering a QB today (it’s still $15,000) will get you one in March, but the importan...
