DailyDirt: Entertaining Robot Videos
from the urls-we-dig-up dept
Watching robot videos is usually pretty entertaining -- especially when the robots fail catastrophically. But even when they don't mess up, robotic performances can be mesmerizing when the footage is played in fast motion. Here are just a few examples.- This is possibly the most unintentionally-funny video of a robot that can bundle matching socks. Insert phallic joke here. [url]

- Paul the robot is aiming to take the job of pencil sketch artists at local fairs and amusement parks. Its drawings look a bit messy, though... [url]

Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
