We’re in the exhilarating second half of the SolidWorks Press Event and as you can see from the live coverage, PAL Robotics is debuting the Humanoid Robot and striking fear in the hearts of those that know what is to come.
Even though they’ll stab their metal jowls through the heart of the ‘peaceful’ societies of earth, it’s dang cool technologies and it’s developed completely in SolidWorks. We’re seeing it on stage. No wires, no assistance. and two creepy looking eyes.
Here’s a recap from the live coverage and some other specifications and some photos.
Specs
1.5 meters, 60kg, 1.5 km/h, 120 minute autonomy. voice command recognition, facial recognition, laser-based geography mapping (indoor), dynamic walking, lifts 12 kg.
It’s movement is actually pretty smooth even though it a bit blocky looking and wiggles a bit up top. But c’mon, it’s the first of it’s kind and breaking some ground on how machines can mimic human movement and interaction. Here’s some videos that show you exactly what will be coming at you one day… in one form or another, with glowing read eyes. *shudder*

SolidSmack is a very small behemoth of an online community about 3D CAD, technology, design, robots, and ninjas… Ok, maybe not ninjas so much, but those guys are COOL so there just might be something about some dang ninjas.

Hi Josh,
Pretty interesting robot, is this more advanced then the Honda's Asimo? http://world.honda.com/ASIMO/history/
Hope you're having fun at the Press Conference.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Human based governments simply don't work. Embrace the Robot Revolution.
I love it. Finally someone I can look straight in the eyes with and not up at. I'll bet we can even wear the same coats when it gets cold, assuming that the robots are male or are they just “its.” Perhaps in not too long from now they will be able to be real helpers and then they can help me with my SolidWorks. HHmmm interesting idea.
Design computers that can design other computers and then get the entire hive mind to create the new technology – almost scary and yet only a few years away.
yeah, the guy presenting was asked that and totally blew the whole idea of that ever happening off. Thing is, if you program something to do it, it does it if the capabilities are put in place. why is it so difficult to think that a robot could assemble other robots? ahy.
But Honda company has revealed ideas about more robots..is this more powerful than them..what are all the advantages presented in this kind of robots…
