I can certainly see why!<BR/><BR/>In one of the articles in the link, the creator, Dr Tilsden, an ex NASA scientist, said that this Robosapien “does have a digital brain but it is only as smart as a calculator… his real computation comes from an adaptive design and resonant physics” This goes to show that in order to make a humanoid robot commercially successfully, the robot need not have a super-brain capable of processing thousands of commands.<BR/><BR/>Thanks, Kelvin, for pointing out that Robosapien was used to play soccer recently in Robocup German 2005. That certainly cleared my ignorant misconception that Robcup was only played by robots used in our EE4306 lab.Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04887832757562395900noreply@blogger.com
