robots of the sea

n dark, ice-cold ocean depths under crushing pressures, remotely operated vehicles work around the clock. ROVs can map the sea floor, explore the ocean depths for scientists, and locate shipwrecks for archeologists. They also are extending the reach of the energy industry as it pursues oil into ever-more-difficult environments.

Star Ocean 4 coming to PlayStation 3 after all?

During Microsoft's E3 Keynote today one thing which stood out was that Star Ocean 4 didn't carry the heading stating it was a timed or full exclusive on Xbox 360 whereas The Last Remnent and Infinate Undiscovery did. Now this does suggest that Star Ocean 4 isn't an Xbox 360 exclusive after all. However for now class this as a rumor, until official word is given.

Robotic System Offers Non-invasive Approach to HDR Brachytherapy

A study published in the April 1 issue of the International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics -- also known as the Red Journal -- demonstrates that a robotic radiosurgery system can serve as a non-invasive means for delivering high dose rate (HDR) brachytherapy dosing. The study supports the robotic system's clinical flexibility in treating prostate cancer and expands the non-invasive options available to clinicians and patients.

PLEO, Interactive ?Robotic launched in KSA

Samir Photographic Supplies (SPS) today launched PLEO – an interactive robotic pet – in KSA in a fun filled, interactive event held at Al Shallal Theme Park, Jeddah. The event saw media and guests attend the launch with their families, so their children could play & interact with PLEO, which acts, responds and behaves in a lifelike manner. The attendees enjoyed interacting with PLEO and children were especially thrilled and intrigued by the behavior of the Robot. Speaking at the launch, Mr. Omar Hindi, Marketing Director of SPS said: “PLEO has been received with unprecedented excitement across the world and it is set to revolutionize adult’s & children’s playtime everywhere. We are very happy to introduce this interactive robotic pet in Saudi Arabia as interacting with PLEO will enable children learn several new things.

Camerautomata Charlie: Image Digesting Robotic Duck

If documenting trips to faraway lands is beginning to take time away from actually enjoying them, then a robotic picture-taking duck may be just what you need. In an effort to "to liberate cameras from human operation," South Korean artist Taeyoon Choi created a traveling companion, "Camerautomata Charlie: Image Digesting Robotic Duck," that snaps photographs in response to other camera flashes and can print them on the spot or upload them to your favorite website using WiFi. The piece is being presented as part of a larger exhibit, "Tourists and Travelers," currently on display at Eyebeam Studios.

State's First Single Incision Robotic Kidney Removal Performed at Henry Ford Hospital

DETROIT, Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- For the first time in Michigan, a diseased kidney has been surgically removed at using highly sophisticated 3D robotics through a single incision. "We made several improvements in the technique that could allow us to perform this type of procedure routinely," says Craig Rogers, M.D., Henry Ford's director of robotic renal surgery. He performed the delicate operation last week using the da Vinci Surgical System, which has already been used in thousands of successful surgeries for complete and partial removal of diseased prostates. The kidney, damaged by four tumors, was extracted through an incision of about three inches near the patient's navel of a 50-year-old patient during a complex minimally invasive robotic procedure that lasted approximately 2.

Sensopac Neural-Net Robot Hand May be What Droids Will Shake Hands With

Robotic hands and arms may be getting more sophisticated, but they don't really rival what we think C3-PO would have poking out of his torso. That is until now: an European science team have been busy creating the Sensopac robotic limb, and it's arguably the most human-like robotic limb yet. And partly that's because its sophistication is derived from software modeled on the human cerebellum. The arm has artificial skin that can sense force and direction in detail, and its 38 motors mimic the structure of human muscles and tendons to give it a very human-like grip.
