Random Robot Roundup

Random Robot Roundup:
We're trying out a new format for the Random Robot Roundups that should make them easier to read for the Power Point Generation. Let us know what you think!

  • Kenneth Ward let us know about his robotics video game kickstarter
     
  • The AUVSI released their Senate Judiciary Committee Statement in full.
     
  • Have you seen the Clearpath Grizzly robot? There's some cool Grizzly robot video floating around the intertubes.
     
  • Photo and trailer of the Coyote Tango robot from the upcoming movie, Pacific Rim, about giant robots vs giant monsters.
     
  • Article and video about the Hitachi ROPITS self-driving robotic car
     
  • Check out the Salamandra robotica, the Robot Salamander from the Biorobotics Lab at Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne
     
  • Last up, the Robotics Caucus Advisory Committee has published A Roadmap for U.S. Robotics: From Internet to Robotics - 2013 edition (PDF format)
