The New Year and Robots...

So I have not posted ANYTHING in FOREVER so I apologise to anyone who still reads this blog. I am hoping to post more this year. Today I wanted to make a post about the DARPA robotics competition. In this competition companies create and program robots that have to climb, walk, cut through walls, locate leaky valves, clear debris, open doors, and drive through different courses. A Japanese company won the competition with their S-One robot. Google bought this company, and another robotics company called Boston Dynamics.
