Robot Dance
Found this link, it’s nothing to do with signs but i think this goes to show where the world will be in the not too distant future with computers ect.
You want broadband for this realy it’s nearly 7 meg big.

very cool mate.. 😉
i have broadband granted, it took about 10 seconds then started to play. the way it works is how i plan to have the new video demonstration forum on this site in the near future.
the video of the robots dancing is “streaming VIDEO”, using windows media player that comes with everyones windows 98 onwards to xp as standard.
so no need for downloading software to run. you waite say ten secs or 1 min if slower speed modem and then it plays. as its playing the next min of footage is downloading in the background. so by the time the first minute has completed playing the next min is already downloaded so no need to wait again.. pretty cool. thanks for showing us.. 😉 -
Nice one Mort 😀 Amazing what (I presume) the Japanese can do with robotics. At least there is an alternative to boy bands I guess. 😉
Robert, when this full streaming video thing comes in are you going to stand on the workshop bench and do the whole demo to some upbeat music? 😉 Or a nifty alternative, you could do the ‘A Team’ theme tune when building items like the vinyl racks. 😉 Only kidding, I think the idea of the video demos will go down really well. Is there going to be a download bit though for ppl who are short of broadband?
Cheers, Dewi

😆 😆 😆 maybe mate.. maybe! 😉
what i have in mind is the demo will be loaded exactly like the ones are now. but! belwo each picture there will be a link to show you it as a video clip. probably another link below thatbut is lower rez so smaller file for the ones without b/b.
it wont be for all demos but the ones i feel need shown rather than text and a still image. like how to apply vinyl? or wrapping the wing of a car. that sort of thing.
i could easily have it up and running by the end of this month but we have enough edited/cut material at the moment & we still nned some sort of code to allow it to be contained within a post. 🙄 😉 -
Call me an old cynic, but I reckon this is a bit of smart editing from my last birthday party, everyone was canned. Looks too smooth to be nuts and bolts?? 😕

i thought that too martin. but with the japs, you never know.
it would have to be edited as you can see the people walking about at the side. 😕 😆 -
Martin, I think the clip is real. Mainly because the Japenese unveiled a larger version of the same robot that shook hands with various ppl, it was filmed by CNN, the BBC and other news agencies. That larger robot had the same smooth actions in both its walking abilities and it general posturing. Bizarrely the Japanese chose to have it doing household chores whereas the actual applications for this type of bot is a little more technical than sweeping a few cobwebs and vacuuming the stairs 😉 If memory serves it was designed for work on the international space station. Why the Japanese have chosen to release the smaller versions of this bot doing traditional dancing is beyond me, surely if they were programmed to strip a toyota engine and rebuild it, that would be a more attractive sight to potential buyers! 😕 Nowt stranger than them there Japs! 😉
Cheers, Dewi

The little bots are the new Sony Qrio, the technology must have some serious applications, but these are just expensive toys like the aibo robotic dogs they did.
