Dec. 2 - A team of scientists has demonstrated that a coordinated group of pre-programmed, autonomous robots can do the job of building workers, constructing a six meter high tower without any human intervention. Architects say this new technology paves the way for new methods of engineering buildings of the future. Georgina Cooper reports.

DigInfo - movie.diginfo.tv Related Link www.wizinc.co.jp Currently still in the development stage, Airbots by Wiz Corporation are flying robots built for fighting. Airbots designer Kensaku Kusunoki talks about the development process: "There are many toys that you can play with on the ground, such as remote control cars, but there aren't so many toys out there that you can play with in the air. So if you're thinking about designing a remote controlled flying toy, you normally think of a helicopter shape, but in order to reduce the cost i decided to make it wired to the controller. The next thing I thought about was how to make it lightweight, so I came up with the idea of using styrofoam in the shape of a robot for the body. Lastly, I wanted to make it easy use to without a lot of complex controls, so i made it work simply with just a pull of a switch." The design of the Airbot is yet to be finalized but distributor Happinet Corporation are planning for a November release in Japan.

Caltech scientists steal flight techniques from birds and insects to build microbats; small devices with flapping wings that can fly cameras into places humans can not go. Such flying robots could end up exploring Mars and beyond. Watch the full-length version of this video on Aviation.com: www.aviation.com Credits: CALTECH

Control of precise aggressive maneuvers with an autonomous quadrotor helicopter. This is a small autonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV). Demonstrations of flips, flight through windows, and quadrotor perching are shown. Work done at the GRASP Lab, University of Pennsylvania. Here is a link to the paper: www.seas.upenn.edu

The SMAVNET Project lis.epfl.ch We aim at designing swarms of flying robots to deploy aerial communication networks in disaster areas. Rather than relying on GPS or other positioning sensors that might be unreliable, impractical or expensive, robots rely on local communication with neighboring robots to self-organize. However designing controllers for swarms is challenging. To address this problem, inspiration is taken from ants that can optimally deploy to search for and maintain pheromone paths leading to food sources in nature. This is analogous to the deployment and maintenance of communication pathways between rescuers using flying robots. This work is described in the following paper: Hauert, S., Winkler, L., Zufferey, J.-C. and Floreano, D. (2008) Ant-based Swarming with Positionless Micro Air Vehicles for Communication Relay. Swarm Intelligence, 2(2-4) pp. 167-188.

Undergraduate Electrical Engineers build first ever onboard vision controlled quadrotor. This video demonstrates the quadrotor holding position over an LED target. Once the quadrotor in put into place by joystick, all other movements made by the robot are completely autonomous. All components flying the robot are on board. This was a senior project and this is the flight that won the competition. Team Top Gun: Ivan Perez, Stephen Farnsworth, Steve Wettstein, Peter Niedfeldt, Drew Smith and Scott Wiest.

The Vision-Guided Autonomous Quadrotor is a collaborative project in aerial robotics, carried out jointly by the Intelligent Systems Lab (CS Department) and Distributed Space Systems Lab (AE Department) at the Technion. The main goal is to develop a platform capable of autonomous navigation both indoors and outdoors, using data fusion from an INS, GPS and vision sensors. The project is supported by the Technion Autonomous Systems Program and the Deborah Foundation.

Second year university project for Mechatronics Systems. We set out to build a 4-rotor UAV, but never got as far as untethered and self stabilized flight, and the safety case was too heavy so it got sliced up. It was 'controlled' by a person with a PS2 controller. In a later demonstration to a class, the thing flipped over and cut through one of the rope restraints... I think it's still somewhere in the mechatronics lab room at UWA, already missing a motor and waiting to be scrapped for parts.

These videos where requested by slakecoldblade. This is the whole 3-D Dinosaur Adventure adventure Theater(including Opening Movie). This went faster than exepect cause anyone who uses the DOSBox recorder knows that DOSBox records multple different files because it changes when ever the screen Resoultion changes. Movie 4 of 25 out of the Movie Theater Anyways this movie was in the Movie theater. One thing i forgot to point out in the first video of the movies is that some of these videos were from a 1980s Dinosaur Documentary that i saw on Discovery once back in the late 90s. This one was not in it. This is footage from Janurary 7, 1986 when Paul MacCready known for his flying machines(i think thats what it said in the game) created a Quetzalcoatlus and brought it back to life. Its was a flying robot. I'll get where this took place at from the game later. I don't know what happened to this robot or if its even still around. Paul MacCready was commissioned to build a life-size(the one in the movie) for the Smithsonian Institution in 1985 which this footage was also released in Imaxs On The Wing. The Movie Flying Quetzalcoatlus is footage of when Paul MacCready Fly this thing back in 1986 just with music added in by Hamliton Allstatt. Paul flew it over Death Valley California. I also just read Paul MacCready died in 2007. September 25, 1925 - August 28, 2007 RIP Paul MacCready This game along with the other Knowledge Adventure MS-DOS games came with my Uncles Packard Bell <b>...</b>

A very useful technique it you're out of space... The idea is spinning the motor and then immediately swapping to another tab, it will stop the motor. Repeat this several times and the axle will "detach". Attach something then) and press space again, the axle will fly far in space. You will then have more space to work with... of course in my example it isn't very useful but it can be good if you want to have a small chassis.) If you still have issues, chain motors (put an extender on the motor and another motor on the extender) Enjoy, -Naryar
