Random Robot Roundup
     


Berick Cook wrote to let us know about a new electromagnetic robot
actuator he's patented. He calls it the dynamic
magnet flux actuator. He's granting a non-commercial use license to
robot hobbyists and has provided DIY
instsructions for building your own flux actuators. Another reader sent
us a link to a Reuters
story with video on the Japanese elderly care robot, Twendy-one. Roschler posted a review of the
WowWee Lightstar, a sort of flying robot lightshow. The Swirling
Brain
has rounded up quite pile of stories: there's a New
Scientist story on Tofu
the hairy dancing robot from MIT, photos
from the robot revolution in the UK's theFirstPost, a CNN Health
story on a smart
exoskeleton that helps the paralyzed walk, and a Popular Mechanics
story on robots
at CES. Also spotted
at CES is the first mass-market toy to include a working brain
interface, the Star Wars Force Trainer
from Uncle Milton Industries. It includes a simple EEG-like headset
designed by NeuroSky that
looks ideal for adapting into a DIY cyborg project. Know any other robot
news, gossip, or amazing facts we should report? Send 'em our way
please.
