I’ve accumulated a pile of interesting items that aren’t quite big
enough to warrant a post of their own but still seem worth passing along
to our readers. The Swirling
Brain sent us a link to a spoof news story
titled, Valentine’s
Day Robot Brings World Peace. David M Wilson submitted a link to a
recent sequence of Doonesbury
strips with a robot theme. Fon Davis has launched a new website
about a movie project he’s working on, called MORAV, that involves giant robots
(played by small RC robots). Maoz
Ben Joseph points out some interesting pool cleaning robots. Finally,
Roland Piquepaille wrote a nice blog entry on the GigaPan robot, a sort
of robotic accessory for digital cameras that allows you to take very
precise panoramic images.
