Robocop: Is Tech the Future of Policing?

The 2014 Robocop remake imagines a future where a half-human half-robot cyborg polices the streets of Detroit. We got a chance to sit down with the cast of the new movie to discuss what the future of robotics will look like, and why the idea of a robotic-human hybrid is so compelling.

Alien Exoskeleton for U.S. Army [Future Tech]

"Alien" Exoskeleton for U.S. Army
In the sci-fi classic "Alien," the heroine battles a nasty alien in a mechanical exoskeleton. Today's U.S. Army is testing out an eerily similar exoskeleton to help move heavy loads and prevent back strain and fatigue. You can even punch and fight in the exoskeleton. (November, 2007)

Behold The Future (E011 NASA's Superhuman Robot)

An UPHIGH Production. NASA's Valkyrie DRC 'Superhuman Robot'.
NASA has created a robot for DARPA's upcoming Robotics Challenge Trials. The Valkyrie is a 6-foot-2-inch humanoid machine with detachable arms, sonar sensors, mounted cameras, and a glowing Tony Stark-esque circle in the middle of its chest. The space agency says it's mobile and dexterous enough to enter disaster zones to provide search and rescue functions.

Watch Better, Stronger, Faster: The Future of the Bionic Body

In the future, a woman with a spinal cord injury could make a full recovery; a baby with a weak heart could pump his own blood. How close are we today to the bold promise of bionicsand could this technology be used to improve normal human functions, as well as to repair us? Join Bill Blakemore, John Donoghue, Jennifer French, Joseph J. Fins, and P. Hunter Peckham at "Better, Stronger, Faster," part of the Big Ideas Series, as they explore the unfolding future of embedded technology.

What This MIT Sensor Could Mean For The Future Of Robotics

MIT researchers developed a light-based sensor that gives robots 100 times the sensitivity of a human finger, allowing for "unprecedented dexterity."

Future is Today | Humanoid Robots | Full Documentary HD

Why do we create a Humanoid Robot?
http://www.advexon.com
http://asimo.honda.com/
The dream sounds simple. Design a robot that can duplicate the complexities of human motion and genuinely help people. An easy task? Not at all.

ASIMO took more than two decades of persistent study, research, and trial and error before Honda engineers achieved their dream of creating an advanced humanoid robot.

The Past:
In 1986, Honda engineers set out to create a walking robot.

FUTURE NASA ROBOTS! w. pictures! and BILL NYE... NIAC makes Sci-Fi Real!

FUTURE NASA ROBOTS! w. pictures! and BILL NYE... NIAC makes Sci-Fi Real! They take ideas from SCI-FI and evaluate them for possible use in the the future! How cool a job is that? Filmed at the NASA 101 panel discussion for filmmakers. There is also another office that cooperates with movie production companies to make the portrayal of NASA and other space technology more realistic!

Yes, that is Bill Nye The Science Guy on the left! ;-)

Future is Today - Humanoid Robots 2014

Full information: http://asimo.honda.com/

The Past:
In 1986, Honda engineers set out to create a walking robot. Early models (E1, E2, E3) focused on developing legs that could simulate the walk of a human. The next series of models (E4, E5, E6) were focused on walk stabilization and stair climbing. Next, a head, body and arms were added to the robot to improve balance and add functionality.

Robots, Humans and Future Exploration

During a public event at NASA Headquarters, televised on NASA TV, agency officials and crew members aboard the International Space Station celebrated the one year anniversary of The Mars Curiosity Rover's landing on Mars and discussed how its activities and other robotic projects are helping prepare for a human mission to Mars and an asteroid.

NASA | Space Station Robots Test Techniques of the Future

In an important demonstration of new technical methodologies, from January 14-24, 2013, NASA engineers will try to simulate the transfer of fuel from one vehicle to another, in space, with nothing but robots doing the physical work. Called the Robotic Refueling Mission, it's a major step on the road to developing a robust suite of essential robotic capabilities in space.
