ESG Lego Robotics Seminar
A basic robotics and mechanics class at MIT which centers on Lego.
http://web.mit.edu/esg/proj/ic/www/lego.html

Extractions: Do you like playing with legos? Do you think building stuff is neat? Do you want to learn some robotics? This might be the class for you. No previous experience with robotics or legos is necessary- if you have no idea how a gear train works, that's fine, and if you've been building with technic legos since before you could walk, that's fine too. The seminar is not organized in a traditional We Lecture, You Listen way. Rather, it's a hands-on class where you work on projects and we the tutors provide direction and suggestions. We may stand up and give a brief talk about different kinds of robotic control, or show you how to hook up the sensors, or suggest 'tricks' that make your life easier. In lab, you will be constructing lego robots and learning how program them in Interactive C, the language used by the 6.270 IAP Lego robotics competition (much of our electronic hardware comes from past 6.270 competitions). The seminar is worth 6 credits, so six hours a week of work are expected. Four out of the six hours should be supervised lab hours (we the tutors will set up times we can be here), while the other two are on your own time. Some people end up spending a lot of their free time here too- it's supposed to be exciting!

Extractions: Download the pdf version (752 Kb) About ICRA 2005 The 2005 International Conference on Robotics and Automation will be held in Barcelona, seven years after the last edition in Europe in 1998. During this time, the continuous progress in robotics, automation, and its related areas has produced great changes in the way we use and apply robots. Operating closer and closer with humans, robot interaction is an increasing research topic in robotics. The theme of the ICRA'05 conference, Robots get closer to humans raises issues in matters related to human robot interaction, in advances and experiences of robots and automation at home, at work, for education, as well as in other emerging areas. This annual event will be held in 2005 one week after one of the most important exhibitions in the field, the Hannover Messe , in Germany, thus facilitating the participation of researchers and professionals in robotics to two of the most relevant international events in robotics and automation in the world.

Modular Robotics At PARC
Modular Reconfigurable robotics is an approach to building robots for various robotics researchers learn how to program PolyBot modules at IROS 2003.
http://www2.parc.com/spl/projects/modrobots/

Extractions: PARC Smart Matter Team Chain ... Links Modular Reconfigurable Robotics is an approach to building robots for various complex tasks. Instead of designing a new and different mechanical robot for each task, you just build many copies of one simple module. The module can't do much by itself, but when you connect many of them together you get a system that can do complicated things. In fact, a modular robot can even reconfigure itself change its shape by moving its modules around to meet the demands of different tasks or different working environments. This project addresses the question "What are the limitations on the number of modules for a useful modular reconfigurable robotic system? " How does the number of modules affect: Versatility (different shapes) Robustness (self-repair and redundancy) Cost (economies of scale?) Robotics researchers learn how to program PolyBot modules at IROS 2003. (click here) Robotics Research Demonstrations.

Sitti, Metin
Assistant Mechanical Engineering professor. Micro/Nanorobotics, Nanotechnology.
http://www.me.cmu.edu/people/faculty/sitti.htm

Extractions: Pittsburgh, PA 15213 Professor Sitti's research is focused on the development of micro- and nanoscale robotic and manufacturing systems for novel manufacturing, analysis, and control tools at the micro- and nanoscales by integrating robotics, nanotechnology, MEMS, and biotechnology fields. The other main motivation is to contribute to the understanding and controlling of adhesion and friction at the nanoscale. In my Nanorobotics Lab , we use a system level approach where a micro- and nanoscale system is designed, manufactured and controlled for a specific application in an overall perspective. The first key component of our approach is micro/nano-mechatronic design that involves novel micro- and nanoscale actuators, sensors, mechanisms, and controls specific to the application. Secondly, we utilize micro/nano-physical modeling for improved understanding of the system with preliminary simulations and experimental tests. Automatic or teleoperated control and human-machine interfacing of the nano world to the macro world are also implemented for reliable and repeatable tasks. Finally, we are interested to utilize biomimetic principles in nature so that we could adapt smart, multifunctional, sub-optimal, and adaptive mechanisms, actuators, materials, and structures in nature to the engineering problems at the nanoscale.

Extractions: National security folks and military technologists were cheered when a remotely-controlled Predator UAV fired a laser-guided Hellfire missile and blew up a carload of six alleged Al Qaeda members. While US press coverage was generally cheerful - and dare we say chest-thumping? - overseas sources raised concerns about "summary execution" and violations of International law. Yes, Virginia, there is an international codification for war, and the lawyers are now trying to figure out how Al Qaeda and the US War on Terrorism fits in.

An Interview With Drew McDermott
Extensive work in logic, planning, and robotics, also known for his blunt public appraisals of the state of AI research. Interviewed in Crossroads, the student magazine of the ACM.
http://www.acm.org/crossroads/xrds3-1/interview.html

Extractions: by Kentaro Toyama Drew McDermott graduated with a combined B.S./M.S. Electrical Engineering degree in 1973 (``I had to pretend to be an electrical engineer for 4 years as an undergrad''), and wasted no time earning a Ph.D. in 1976, in the newly-formed Electrical Engineering/Computer Science department, all from MIT. He then immediately joined the Yale faculty and rapidly ascended to the top of the ivory tower. He's well-known in AI circles not only for his extensive work in logic, planning, and robotics, but also for his blunt public appraisals of the state of AI research. In 1976, he wrote an essay titled ``Artificial Intelligence Meets Natural Stupidity,'' in which he chastised AI researchers (himself included) for various forms of wishful thinking that allowed one to interpret a (sometimes unimplemented) program's relatively meaningless data manipulation as meaningful, intelligent thought. In 1987, he effectively renounced an area of research to which he had devoted many years of work: ``A Critique of Pure Reason'' expresses his disillusionment with attempts to base common-sense reasoning on deductive logic, and challenges the fundamental assumptions of logic-based AI. With that kind of experience, talent, knowledge, and candor, McDermott's opinions of AI are worth hearing:
