Indian Robot Action Flick

So this already hilarious and quirky Indian robot movie is going to seem even weirder because this video is a russian dub of the movie. I couldn't find anything with English subs, so you'll just have to guess whats going on. Oh well, enjoy the madness! (the movie is called Endhiran if you want to know more)

Robot Snow Plow

Damn, I hate discovering these things on the web. I see a sweet robot like this and I want it, but then I realize A) I don't plow enough for it to make sense and B) it isn't even available. Ah well, at least it's fun to watch.

Robot Arm Ride

Somewhere between incredible stupidity and devious engineering lies a sweet spot where things like this can thrive. (0:06 is a good example of closer to stupidity)

Coffee Latte Printer

For all of you who love robotics and coffee (I think the former is almost entirely contained within the latter group) then you'll probably want one of these devices. Sadly, you can't get one at the moment but the imagined possibilities are pretty sweet.

Ninja Robot Hand

This video isn't new, but the dexterity of this robotic hand is impressive enough to warrant going up here anyway. I particularly like the phone flipping trick. As the voice over points out, tossing stuff to itself isn't usually in a robot's skill set.

Ninja Helicopters

Okay, so the real title to this clip is, "Aggressive Maneuvers for Autonomous Quadrotor Flight", but I think we can all agree they're really just little ninja helicopter bots. And yes, Skynet just gained a terrifying new ally.

Azureus Rising - Proof of Concept

You might know that I love me some mindless action films from time to time, but this little video is almost too over the top for me. There's pretty much nothing other than the gorgeous technical display going on here, but man do they have that in spades. Why do flips help you dodge poorly calibrated guns and why is there an empty city full of huge robots? Who cares, its preeeetty.

It Eats Snow and Poops Bricks

Only the Japanese could come up with a cute robot to eat snow, poop ice blocks, and do it all in the name of helping the elderly. That being said, I totally want one. My snow forts would be the most epic in all the land, and no one would dare question of my army of loyal robot minions. Buahahahaha! The future is here!

Sad Rover

Wow, I never thought of our Mars exploration like this. Now I feel guilty for all those excited moments I had learning about its discoveries...
