Terminator Diagnostics

March 14th, 2012 | Robot

Cyborg Gif

I can’t say where this Terminator Gif actually came from, but it looks pretty awesome.  Any sort of diagnostic screen/retina display/80’s style color palette is a winner in my mind.

I’m thinking this may be from a video game, but I can’t think of it…

Man’s Best Robot Friend – Welded Sculpture

March 12th, 2012 | Robot

 

Brian Mock, from Portland, Oregon, is responsible for these welded robot canines.  The sculptures are made from wing nuts, hinges, screws, nails, old electronics, and sheet metal which are meticulously welded into animals.

From the artist:

“I am intrigued by the challenge of creating an entirely unique piece from an eclectic collection of discarded objects. Giving these old, common items a new and extraordinary life as one sculpture is an artistically challenging yet gratifying process.

This type of work is also designed to be highly interactive and prompt viewers to question the reality of what they see.

Audience reactions fuel my motivation.”

I am astounded by the elegant form he is able to achieve from the scrap metal with which he works.  They aren’t clunky at all.  Mock has been visiting scrap yards for the past 10 years to obtain the materials for his sculptures, and they can take up to 3 months to complete.

Wire Anatomy

March 11th, 2012 | Brain, Robot

Federico Carbajal is an architect from Montreal who created these anatomical pieces from galvanized wire, stainless steel and acrylic.

Federico’s description of his work:

An exploration into the boundaries of space: volume, surface and line; of the immaterial form and its perception – its structure and deconstruction. A deep look at the human body, its anatomy and the appropriation of its symbols.

With the influence of the old masters and the early works of Alexander Calder, to current digital 3D media and architectural representation, these tridimensional hybrids bring together drawing, architecture and sculpture in order to create a coherent spatial entity.

Floating tridimensional sketches of the human body are drawn through space with different sheathes of galvanized wire mesh and are assembled and structured with architectural detail.

Spatial sketching allows for the possibility of new representations of images in space, exploring the void and the dematerialization of volume.

  The physical and metaphysical presence of the human body emanate through a combination of transparent planes and spatial lines.

I’m a fan of almost all interesting representations of human anatomy, and this work is no exception.  The wire heart is really great and surprisingly accurate.

 For the first time ever, these self-driving cars will be able to legally drive in the United States.

 A lengthy campaign by Google has led to new provisions in the state of Nevada which allow for a new kind of robot driver’s license.  Yes, you read that correctly, a ROBOT driver’s license!  A red license plate will be the only mark that these cars are not actually being driven by humans.

With over 50,000 lives lost to careless driving in the United States each year, this a huge step to ensuring the safety of people everywhere.  Hopping in your car is probably the most dangerous thing I do every day, so I, personally, welcome this technology with open arms.

I can’t believe the Google car has already logged almost 200,000 miles on the streets without incident.

Robot Quadrotors Perform James Bond Theme

They premiered the James Bond theme song shown above at the TED2012 Conference in Long Beach, California today, and it was a hit.

And as before, these robots are completely autonomous, meaning humans are not controlling them; instead, they run on computer programs designed to play the song.

Kinetic Rings with Wings

Animated GIF of the Ring Above

Animated GIF of the Ring Above

Dukno Yoon, a metalsmith and jeweler from Kansas creates spectacular rings, bracelets, metronomes, and other machines that mimic the movements of flying birds.  Here’s a statement from the artist:

“The contrast between metal structural form and natural feather, together with the repetitive and whimsical movements of fragile wings, provokes the imagination and evolves the intimate relationship between work and viewer/wearer.”

Yoon has put a LOT of work into creating these designs.  The sheer number of accessories that he’s created is pretty astounding, and you can find all of them here.

Here is a nice example of one of his metronomes:
