Bi-pedal Robot Marathon Straining The Limits Of Machine And Man
“Five teams of humans will compete to keep their robots walking over the grueling event, switching out servos and batteries (but not the entire robot) as needed. In order to win a bot must complete 422 laps of a 100 meter course outlined on the 11th floor of Osaka’s ATC building.”
— A group of Japanese robot programmers are in the midst of three very, very long days right now. You can watch the “Roborama Full” robot marathon live, here, for as long as you’d like to. But it is some slow-going action. I hope for their sake they can somehow have this song by Canadian composer Didier Manchione song playing as a soundtrack the whole time. That and a massive pile of drugs to take.
