This blog will be about my love for Robots, big, small the good and the downright creepy.
The first on my list I want to share with everyone is Rollin' Justin.
All the way from Germany's DLR ( Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. ) The German Aerospace Centre.
This dexterous robot makes catching look easy, it can even catch two balls at the same time. The humanoid robot uses 51 servomotors and can move at a speed of 6 km/h ( 3,7 mph )
Here is the official web page. http://www.dlr.de/rm/desktopdefault.aspx/tabid-5471/

I am not going bore you with all the technical details but if your into the nitty-gritty stuff and have to know how it works check out their site they have a lot of info.
That's all from me, check out next week when I will talk about another Robot. And remember Robots are the future, don't fear them. They are here to serve us.
