Wednesday, August 17, 2011 4:53:44 AM meh - capable of operating in an ENCLOSED 3d space. The vertical swarmabots need to be able to work without a ceiling, that or the eyebot's could be extended to fasten lines for a groundbot with pulling grunt. Anyway, I want a device that can fetch me beer, make me a sandwich, and ***** ** *** and look pleasing to the eye... |

Wednesday, August 17, 2011 12:39:31 AM razlem - It makes sense that way if you only look at it in the short-term. Yes, right now it might be inefficiant and would be faster/easier for a human to do it, but as it's made, it can only get better. If you look at computers - fifteen years ago, hell, even ten years ago computers weren't anywhere near as good as they are today. |

Tuesday, August 16, 2011 3:54:02 PM Why ask someone to do it for you when you can spend valuable time and resources creating something that can do it with one-hundredth the efficiency? :D |

Tuesday, August 16, 2011 9:14:11 AM @turtle While the exact mechanics of the robots may not be suitable for space exploration their use of multiple robots that communicate between each other over short distances is. Read their website they got some cool poo swarmanoid. |

Tuesday, August 16, 2011 9:02:05 AM they said interplanetary exploration there aint any flat ceiling in space for the ibot to connect itself to or for the hand bot to use to hold its weight when climing the whole aspect of using robots for exploration missions just fails |
