Day of the Androids at Hanson Robotics
     


I got to spend some time at Hanson Robotics a while
back, talking to
David Hanson and his staff and shooting photos for Robot Magazine (see
the Jul/Aug issue for more). My hope is that the photos will
give you an idea what a typical day working at Hanson Robotics is
like. The day I was there, everyone was preparing androids and other
robots for an upcoming TED conference. In the photo above Bill Hicks is
integrating an eye assembly into the head of Hanson's newest android,
known as Bina. Several other projects were underway at the same time,
including preparation of a Zeno prototype and fabrication of a new mini
Einstein toy robot. Read on for a lots more
photos of crazy, creepy, android stuff.
