Robotic Assortment Brooks, Search & Rescue, Another Aibo
Robotic Assortment The Age has a feature about Brook's life work -- HAL Holds No Terrors. The article starts by listing many of Rodney's current projects, and mentions that AI is in fact a much harder problem than everyone anticipated! Brook's controversial thoughs on building up intelligent systems from the ground up, focusing on sensory input is discussed. To finish, the writer tries to find the link back to humanoid intelligence, much like Brooks is trying to do with his research in emotions. To me, there seems to be an ending missing to that story, but I guess we'll have to wait! A report on ACM <a href="http://www.acm.org/membernet/stories/lawler_2001.html">Recognizes Robot Technology Developer for Contributions to World Trade Center Rescue</a>. Despite having retired a few days before, he was on the scenes with his army of robots in a few hours. That's dedication for you... Finally, Forbes has a brief article mentioning the new Aibo; Another Year, Another Aibo. | Alex J. Champandard 934 posts. Tuesday 21 May, 18:36 Reply
