048.R35 Magnetic drive
Makota Makita & Hiroshi Tsuzaki. This is known as the “Zero” and is a marvel of modern industrial design. It is a prototype of a bike with hubless, magnetically suspeded wheels and a magnetic drive. The bike is very lightweight and powered by cranking magnetic pedals which rotate the tires suspended between other magnets. I […]
047.R34 Oxygen Production Technology
NASA Tests Lunar Rovers and Oxygen Production Technology NASA has concluded nearly two weeks of testing equipment and lunar rover concepts on Hawaii’s volcanic soil. The agency’s In Situ Resource Utilization Project, which studies ways astronauts can use resources found at landing sites, demonstrated how people might prospect for resources on the moon and make […]
045.R32. Climbing wall
Un rocódromo es una instalación preparada especÃficamente para practicar la escalada al objeto de evitar el desplazarse a la montaña. Está equipada con presas y seguros. Su forma y tamaño pueden ser libres o estar condicionados por el edificio donde se aloja. Presas. Objetos de diferentes tamaños, formas y colores, que simulan los agarres que […]
043.R30. Ballance
Masaaki Kumagai and Takaya Ochiai at the Robot Development Engineering Laboratory, Department of Mechanical Engineering and Intelligent Systems, Tohoku Gakuin University, Japan have developed a robot that can balance on a ball – even while carrying heavy loads. While this might at first just seem like a cool trick, it also shows how a robot […]
039.R26. Air ray
 Air_ray, modelled on the manta ray, is a remote-controlled hybrid construction consisting of a helium-filled ballonet and a beating wing drive. Its lightweight design enables it to “swim†in the sea of air using the lift from the helium in a similar way to the manta ray in water. Propulsion is achieved by a […]
038.R25. AirPenguin
AirPenguin – autonomously flying robotic penguins With the AirPenguins, the engineers from Festo have created artificial penguins and have taught them “autonomous flight in the sea of air”. For this purpose, control and regulating technology had to be further developed into self-regulating biomechatronic systems, which could also play a future role in adaptive production.A group […]
037.R24 iRobot Dirt Dog
 Say Bye To Your Broom. There are some areas in your home where a broom just won’t cut it. Like in your garage, workshop, basement or patio. That’s when you need a tough robot to get in there and do your dirty work. Dirt Dog jumps into action, sweeping up leaves, woodchips, nuts, bolts […]
036.R23. iRobot 710 Warrior
The next-generation force multiplier, the iRobot 710 Warrior is a big and powerful robot that carries heavy payloads. >link
031.R18. SuperBot
SuperBot is a new type of robots that are modular, multifunctional, and easily reconfigurable. Its modules can be dynamically configured into different robots to fit the user’s needs. For example, it can crawl, walk, roll, climb, carry, fetch, or survey. The reconfiguration and module exchanges are easy and do not require any special knowledge or […]
030.R17. M-Train
M-TRAN III Modular Robot This Robot is the coolest robot I have ever seen. M-TRAN III is name after Modular transformer and was design from Japan. The M-TRAN III is so much better than M-TRAN II by Speed eliability of connection is largely improved. This robot is cool because it can self transform into any […]
029.R16. RHex
RHex Devours Rough Terrain RHex is a rugged man-portable robot with extraordinary rough terrain mobility. RHex climbs in rock fields, mud, sand, vegetation, railroad tracks, telephone poles and up slopes and stairways. RHex has a sealed body, making it fully operational in wet weather, muddy and swampy conditions, and it can swim on the surface […]
028.R15. BigDog
BigDog – The Most Advanced Rough-Terrain Robot on Earth. BigDog is the alpha male of the Boston Dynamics robots. It is a rough-terrain robot that walks, runs, climbs and carries heavy loads. BigDog is powered by an engine that drives a hydraulic actuation system. BigDog has four legs that are articulated like an animal’s, with […]
