Reflex

"One hundred years of tradition in an artform should not be thrown out the window when new technology comes along. In recent times the tools used to create animation have changed dramatically, but the principles of the art haven't. Animators still care about the same things: Poses, Timing, Arcs, and Spacing."

Unworkable devices

And speaking about museums, have a look at the museum of unworkable devices.

Amazing!!

Don’t forget to check out the overbalanced wheels section (favorite non-workable device ever).

Retro technology

I observed that the word balancing and the word wheels in the label cloud on the left sidebar of my blog are bigger than other words and I remembered a page about monowheels. The page is part of the museum of retro technology.

PINO

Open PINO Platform:

"Open PINO Platform is the project to accelerate the research and development of humanoid robots by providing the technical information of PINO open to the public. Everyone can use PINO as a base of the research and development, in other words, to foster PINO to be more sophisticated humanoid robot. We hope PINO to play the similar role as LINUX, for humanoid robot development."
