Steam-Powered Robots

It’s been a hard week for robotics. Sony annouced it was killing off the AIBO robotic dog and the QRIO robotic human, to focus on its core business: kick-a$$ electronics and gaming. Can’t say we blame them now that Samsung and others are clearly eating their lunch, but it’s sad that we are steps further away now from having our robotic dog bring in the paper while our robotic servant mixes up a martini. Sigh…
Anyway, here’s a guy who has devoted himself to the very speciliaed world of steam powered robotics. Why? becasue he can.
