Re: Watch This! Web Video Finds
Small world. My mother is also from Kohala.
What exactly was the objective and strategy of the ball game? Which robot could get the most balls? Place it on that rack succesfully? Or were there several different games? Was it timed?
I was hoping it was gonna' be "Battlebots" style where they clobber each other to the kill. Remember that show? It was a riot to watch at first, but after a while it got stale.
When they start building more humanoid style designs that have movement like humans with functional legs and arms, that will make for some very entertaining "Battlebots". Have them rip heads off, complete with fake luminescent green blood that gushes out. You know, real drama.
It took Honda motor company YEARS of R&D just to get their robot to climb stairs successfully. Apparently walking on two legs is a tough skill to duplicate robotically.
