Robot technology running fast in Japan

Robot technology has been moving really fast in Japan right now. Here is a demonstration: two Manoi-AT01 humanoid robots racing against each other.



MANOI (humanoid robot) is a product of KYOSHO. Please see the Design, Mechanism and Playing Events Innovation.

High performance driving of the Remote control Segway (a self balancing robot).

This video shows the self-balancing robot spinning as it drives. All that the user needs to do is use the remote control to command direction and turning direction. The microcontroller does the rest.

This is a remote control Segway (a mini self balancing robot), named the Teetering Buffalo, built at Georgia Tech by graduate students Adam Cardi, Aaron Enes, and Matt Wagner.
