More than 330 companies turned up in the Japanese capital for the International Robot Exhibition (iREX). There were some hi-tech toys on display, but most of the exhibitors were serious designers, unveiling robots that might be able to help in the healthcare, services and manufacturing sectors in the future.
Inventors from Tokyo University of Science brought in their robotic muscle suit, which they hope factories and care homes will turn to as Japan's demographic shifts towards the elderly.

Robin Murphy, director of the Center for Robot-Assisted Search and Rescue at Texas A&M University, was on-site at Ground Zero within 24 hours of the attack. She brought along a team of students and colleagues to deploy a cadre of robots to search the rubble for survivors and victims. The effort was a foundational moment in the development of her rescue robotics systems and was a precursor to her later efforts following Katrina, the 2011 Japanese earthquake, and other disasters.

Robots To The Rescue UNSW PhD student Raymond Sheh talks about his rescue robots project. Sheh is part of a UNSW robotics team preparing for the 2009 World Robocup Challenge.
Pars is an Aerial rescue robot which is designed and made for saving human lives. The first purpose of building the robot is the relief of people drowning near coastlines. By developing its applications, it can be used in ships and off shore reliefs. It can also be used in other applications such as monitoring of marine and off shore structures, recording films and pictures from dangerous path ways for rescue missions, precise positioning and monitoring of off shore disasters.

This is a simulation, showing possible uses for these robotic boats. The first question is, why not have the quadrotor lift the patient over the water? In the real world, that's probably the easiest solution, but here we wanted to demo the boats. Which got us thinking, would there be any real-world situation using all three robots the way we do in the video? Perhaps in an area with a no-fly zone implemented, or tunnels through mountains too high to fly over.

Built at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md., the GPM spacecraft travelled roughly 7,300 miles (11,750 kilometers) to its launch site at Tanegashima Space Center on Tanegashima Island, Japan, where it is scheduled for liftoff on Feb 27, 2014 1:07 pm (EST). GPM's Core Observatory is a joint mission between NASA and the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency to study rainfall and snowfall around the globe, including weather and storms that the Core Observatory previewed on its trans-Pacific journey.

Valkyrie - Nasa's 6ft 'superhero' robot that weighs almost 20 STONE and could one day be sent to space
Nasa has unveiled its entry for this year's DARPA Robotics Challenge and it's a 6ft 2in so-called 'superhero' robot called Valkyrie. Valkyrie can walk by itself, pick up objects and even use tools - and one day the advanced machine could be used to save lives in war or disaster zones. The humanoid has been designed with female characteristics and its various built-in cameras, recording and sonar equipment are powered by a 2kWh battery.
It is called an automaton because it can carry out tasks autonomously.

NASA has developed a robot that may be used to explore Mars before humans ever set foot on the red planet. "Valkyrie" was developed by a team of engineers at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Tex. for the DARPA robotics competition later this month. Valkyrie is a 6.2-foot, 275-pound humanoid robot that can walk on its own and pick up and manipulate objects. It is extremely flexible with 44 degrees of axes of rotation in its joints.
Valkyrie, aided by a new whole-body compliant control and planning architecture, turns an industrial valve while being assisted by a skilled operator. One of the main innovations of the operations and control architecture is to provide rapid programming tools that allow skilled users to create sensor-based behaviors at runtime without the need to teleoperate the robot. Valkyrie is a collaborative effort lead by NASA's Johnson Space Center where UT Austin plays a key role on providing a sensor-based Whole-Body Compliant Control Architecture for manipulation and mobility.
