It's a date! Friday 12 noon-ish I will be there at Rochor Centre to check out the robots with you guys. I've called Clarence to make sure he'll be there to show us the cool stuff.
mass order? Anyway, seriously, if anyone wants to buy the hitec robot he shd find another person cuz 15% discount for 2 is quite a significant sum of money.
Let me know if anyone is interested but cannot find someone to obtain the 15% discount with.
Servo-Robots have been around for quite long liao.... I've read some webbies here and there, mainly pursued crazily in Jap and Germany, Europe... There are fighting competitions somemore- theme : Humanoid Robots... Melee battle, think along the line of Gundam.... most mechs in those tournaments lookk that way minus the colours or weapons...
And it's all quite complicated with 2-3 people controlling, even with algos in place... Some complicated moves like Karate Side Kicks or punches were also possible... If i didn't interpret wrongly then, loser is decided whichever mech fall flat on back.... quite cool.... but quite ex$$. From some of the videos, competition still quite skewed, difference in skill and technical levels of some nternational teams were so wide!! It's like the loser team's robot just walk and stand there... and the winning team just socked it with a blow..
Humanoid robots requires a lot of programming work. Its really up to the user's creativity as well as programming skills to make the robot do all the different movements/stunts.
In my own opinion, instead of asking "what can the robot do?", its more like "what can you make it(the robot) do?"
Its something like asking Alan Szabo and a newbie what can they do with the same heli
