DOMO The Next Maid Generation Robot
The dream of having a robotic housekeeping is likely becoming reality in MIT. The researchers in MIT are working on an intelligent humanoid robot that will help human. Domo, they named this robot, works in grasp and place object. Domo projected to help elderly in doing simple task. Later this robot will be programmed to work in agriculture, space travel and assisting people in industrial area. This robot said to be the next generation of the earlier robot Kismet and Cog.
iMove Electric Car Apple Touch On Transportation
Apple as the big company that creates iPod, iPad, or iPhone starts to give another touch on different type. iMove an electric car idea someday will move in the street driven by the Apple product lover. On first sight this car more or less looks like Macintosh mouse. With this concept the driver allowed to view the widely when drive the car. With Apple technology joint on this electrical car of course it won’t be bored to drive on this car. Pyramidal shaped glass receptors placed on the car’s roof charges the electronic dashboard.
MIT Incredible Electric Eye
MIT has worked on some modern robot project like Coco or Kismet and in 2009 MIT worked on an incredible health project I would like to call it. They invented an electric eye. This electric eye could help many people in the world that had problem with their sight like blindness to regain their sight. Even though it will not be a perfect sight regain but at least people being help with this device to recognize faces or environment. This incredible electric eye works with the help of a chip. This chip will be implanted to people eye. A glass with camera also needed here, this glass will transfer the images data to the chip that has been implanted.
Portable Radiation Tester Nuctest NT-6106
Since the earthquake and tsunami that stroke Japan people were attracted with the shocking news about the danger of radioactive radiation from Fukushima nuclear power plan. After that people were trying to seek for iodate but did one of them like to try find portable device that could help them knowing the dose of radiation around them ? I don’t know about that but I know about this portable device, the Nuctest NT-6106. the Nuctest NT-6106 radiation dose meter is an instrument used to measure the dose of radiation.
Samsung Female Less-Robotic April
In 2003 Samsung developed a white feminine robot named April. It was close enough to be called as a robot, there was no sensor and this robot couldn’t walk. It only moved its arms and head. This robot used in studying the interaction between human and robot in HRI experiment. April worked in companying person who need friend or pet because they feel lonely. It could greet you or playing your favorite music. But it appeared that people want more than just greet or play music, in recent study it was shown that people expectation to humanoid robot was higher.
Robotic Jets Ski Blackfish from QinetiQ: Able to Monitor Underwater Area
Here is a revolutionary robotic jet ski from QinetiQ called Blackfish. Blackfish is the first line in defense where robotic jets ski is able to monitor both under and upper water areas during the patrol. Robotic jets ski Blackfish is perfect equipment to protect ships in harbor areas from terrorists. Blackfish is able to travel around with speed up to 40mph. This robot designed in 10 feet long and can be controlled remotely up to one kilometer. Moreover the robotics jets ski Blackfish can be operated in pre-programmed routes. This kind of robot is used to prevent terrorist attack on ship in harbor areas. Blackfish could be robot that able to prevent same attack that stroke U.S.S. Cole in Yemen that killed 17 people.
