A Restaurant Run By Robots

Children and science fictions enthusiasts are not alone in their fascination of robots. For decades, TV shows and movies that depicted robots have gained much recognition and popularity. It’s no surprise that one innovative restaurant that has integrated robots into its business, is receiving a lot of attention.

Self-assembling robots


Self-assembling robots could be the future of snack delivery The project is titled "Spatially Targeted Communication and Self-Assembly," and it allows flying drone robots to communicate with a group of ground-based swarm robots. 
This significantly increases the swarm bots' sensing range to give them a better idea of which morphology—or formation of robots—would be appropriate for a given environment. Incredibly, the flying robots communicate with their grounded companions through a series of LED light displays, as Gizmodo points out. I would explain it further, but it might be best just to watch it in action yourself:

ΟΔΥΣΣΕΑΣ

Παρουσιάζουμε τον Οδυσσέα, ένα ρομποτικό σύστημα ασφαλούς πειραματισμού με αντικείμενο την αυτόνομη επίγεια πλοήγηση σε εξωτερικούς χώρους. Η ανάπτυξη του οχήματος βασίστηκε σε ένα απλό ηλεκτροκίνητο παιδικό αμαξίδιο. Ο στόχος ήταν η μετατροπή του αμαξιδίου από χειροδηγούμενο όχημα σε αυτόνομης πλοήγησης, το οποίο θα είχε την ικανότητα να ακολουθεί προκαθορισμένες διαδρομές. Επιπλέον, να μπορεί να αποφεύγει εμπόδια, καθώς και κωλύματα με προκαθορισμένες μέγιστες και ελάχιστες διαστάσεις βάθους, ύψους και πλάτους.

A really crazy and sometimes chaotic game that was presented at LEGO World 2011 (Copenhagen, Denmark)

Technical Highlights: -HiTechnic (http://www.hitechnic.com/) Gyro and Acceleration sensors are used to detect head movements. -Bluetooth Communication is established between the Helmets and the Soccers Bots. -All robots (Helmets and Soccer-Bots) are programmed in NXT-G, the standard LEGO MINDSTORMS programming interface.

Special thanks for their support to: -LEGO MINDSTORMS Team -HiTechnic.com (http://www.hitechnic.com/)

NXT Battle Tank



This "Battle Tank" creation uses parts from the NXT (8527) set and the 8275 Power Functions Bulldozer set (sadly, no longer available from LEGO). It combines the NXT and two NXT motors with a LEGO Power Functions setup of 2 XL motors, 1 M motor, 2 IR receivers, and 1 PF battery pack, and various parts from both sets. 
The whole model was designed from scratch from the ground up. The treaded chassis in particular outperforms the bulldozer chassis in several ways I think (faster, climbs better, treads don't fall off when turning on carpet, more compact, fewer parts), in addition to making space in the center down low for the NXT brick. 
I built this and filmed the video clips a while back but never got around to editing and posting the video. But now that I am on a roll with remote control... The NXT part of this is not that complex or interesting, with one notable exception: I found a way to get the Power Functions IR receiver to give sensor input to the NXT, so that you can partially control NXT creations using the PF remote control, which is what made this project possible.
I also put the ultrasonic sensor on it so that I could do something autonomous with it too, but I never got around to it because the remote control was too much fun :-). And then I needed the parts so I took it all apart...

Lego NXT - THE ULTIMATE SAFE

Lego NXT - THE ULTIMATE SAFE



Check http://www.bouwvoorbeelden.nl/home_eng.htm for more instructions. The display shows 5 small locks... When you turn the dial AND change direction, the Safe "accepts" the code that was on the display just before you changed direction... One small lock (in the display) opens to confirm the code entry. After doing this five times you wait... It starts laughing when you took a wrong combination! So the lock accepts 5 numbers by changing the rotation direction of the wheel. And, dialing 45 to the right is not the same as 45 to the left. So you have 5 entries of "-99to +99". It does not tell you what code is correct.

Kiva Systems: A Robotic System for Automagically Fulfilling Orders in Warehouses

When an order is received, a bunch of robots come into action, gathering various bins which hold the items needed to fulfill an order, somewhere in the warehouse, right up to the human operator, who collects the items he/she needs and the robots then go back and recharged themselves.

All of this is done autonomously. Remarkable!

What is lazier than giving speech commands to a robot in order to obtain a desired result? Using another robot to say the commands at your place.

Nao sends Speech commands to an Arduino mobile robot based on the DFRobotShop Rover and the VRbot sppech recognition module.

Arduino robot controlled by Neural Network



1 adruino mega, 3 servos, 1 analog infrared receiver, 3 contacts and 2 encoders from an old printer. I use a genetic algorithm that trains the 5-7-2 neural network (5 inputs, 7 neurons in the hidden layer and 2 in output). The 5 inputs are the 5 areas that the IR scans using the third servo, and the 2 outputs are the speed of each wheel servo.
