In a robot uprising, humanity still should have one slim hope: if we flee to the beaches, our robot overlords might fall over on the soft, shifting sand dunes. Articles about robotics: http://www.scoop.it/t/science-news?tag=robotics

It would be easy to get a bit jaded about robots to the point that you think, "I've seen that before. No big deal." But, every once in a while a robot design comes along that is just so amazingly cool that it takes your breath away.

This video corresponds to a small experiment in which we put Qbo in front of the mirror to see if he can learn to recognize himself. For that, we used the "Object Recognition" mode and the "Face Recognition" mode. Qbo, using its stereoscopic vision, selects his image in the mirror and, with the help of one of the engineers, learns how to recognize himself.

A team out of France has taught a robot how to play the classic board game Connect Four, but this isn’t some mere act of technical expertise. The Nao robot can not only strategize and place pieces in the appropriate slot, it can recognize the face and emotion of its opponent. It’s less like playing against a computer and more like competing against a companion.

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.
