Stunning: Robot artist creates Halo helmet

April 11, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This video of a Japanese machining robot is pretty. Well; to the right geeky sort of mind set anyway. I love the way it carves so easily through the metal. It looks like someone carving into light plastic or foam. The choice of sculpture is enough to make this video a must watch for any […]

Where’s the Navibot? – the irony of www.samsung.com/navibot

April 10, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Samsung have a new viral video out that’s proving to be popular. It’s popular because it’s good. The video shows a conference room, boring a heck, except there’s a small navibot moving around on the floor. Sometimes something impressive happens. Then the bot flies off. We’re directed to www.samsung.com/navibot to find out more. We’re supposed […]

Freaky crawling robot is a freak

February 28, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

This rather freaky crawling robot is actually performance art. I think that this provides even more evidence that performance art and freakiness are just inches a part on the same scale of measurement. Watch out for the nurse. Not only is she part of the performance art she is the performance artist. This means it […]

OMG. The Triceracopter. The Triceracopter.

February 20, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I’ve been at a conference for the last few days. Internet access has been hard. This is why there’s been a rush of posts to Geek Native in the last few hours. I think the Triceracopter is the best of the catch up posting. Surely this is enough evidence anyone needs that evolution is real? […]

Yuki-taro the snow eating robot

February 20, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

It’s not unlikely that we’ll see a rather cute snow eating robot shuffling around the streets of Japan in the winter. Blog Inventor Spot brings news of this GPS, camera and self-guided robot actually shoves snow and turns them into lego looking ice blocks. Just how much does this Pokemon style bot cost? Too much. […]

Lego Mindstorms: CubeStormer robot vs Rubik’s cube

February 15, 2010 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

How long does it take a robot built from lego to solve a Rubik’s cube? Not very long. Not very long at all. Take a look.. and the cool thing is that this video is going viral on YouTube. There are many geeks out there.

$75,000 for weird, singing android heads

December 6, 2009 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

These three heads are an art display which you can pick up for a mere $75,000. They’re on a 15 minute loop in which they’ll sing together (in the video we hear them chanting for freedom!) or look nervously around the room.
