Commander Data Joins LEGO Mindstorms in Hall of Fame
     

It's official. CMU has inducted four new robots into the CMU
Robot Hall of Fame for 2008: Lt. Command
Data, the fictional android
from Star Trek; LEGO Mindstorms,
the popular robot kit; NAVLAB
5, an autonomous 1990 Pontiac Trans Sport; and the Raibert
Hopper, the one-legged hopping robot designed by Marc Raibert who
went on to Boston Dynamics where he worked on BigDog and other biped and
quadruped robots. CMU had previously announced the identities of the four
new famous robots but yesterday's ceremony marks the actual induction. Read
