Juggling Robot

[ThomasJAckerman]

Does it run Linux?

[stevenlowell4]

But will it blend??

[situlo]

FAIL

[Absintheology]

If it's not funny it's never going to find work

[BruderSeth]

can it kill?

no?

then it's worthless!

[filipemtx]

but can it mills mess?

[billibillert]

damned its better than me - cant follow the balls

[atimholt]

kinda cute.

[AndyGoRAWR]

I know absolutely nothing about robotics, but wouldnt detecting the location and distance of the balloon be easy with the edge detection and radar bouncing back stuff? Would it be able to be told to hit the ball closer to itself if the ball is going further away.

[DOUBLESH0CK]

that's cool that it's sensing where the balloon is.

[CoasterCloud]

I want one.

[frontporsche]

The ending was sad.

[TomaNistor]

I cried.

[marcelofix]

very sad... =(

[tommymcfox]

hhahaha, it lost its ballon! :D

[razorflown]

the title should say "balloon bouncing robot" not "juggling robot"

[BikZippo]

@razorflown agreed! Juggling is 2 or more objects.

[ddrmaxman]

thats really good but....eventually after robotic depth perception is developed they will need to make robots that can walk and use robotic hands to a semi primitive Human level. but first comes first the depth perception module needs to be perfected. Great work to those who made it.

Do you know the speculations?

[13makio]

aeheh it lost it in the end ehaeh it was goin "ooh waht did balloon good .. wher oo hwere

[Roflboi]

you wouldn't believe it, but for the robot to calculate the distance from it to the ball is actually a hefty accomplishment. Depth perception isn't a 'bots best friend! ;)

[PuppyCat1234]

I think this is cool but i just dont get what it really does does it just juggl?
