Robot - BigDog Throws Cinder Blocks with Huge Robotic Face-Arm

Dynamic Robot Manipulation

Via vidistar
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

BigDog handles heavy objects. The goal is to use the strength of the legs and torso to help power motions of the arm. This sort of dynamic, whole-body approach is routinely used by human athletes and animals, and will enhance the performance of advanced robots. The control techniques and actuators needed for dynamic manipulation are being developed by Boston Dynamics with funding from the Army Research Laboratory's RCTA program.

Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

This is new - complete new way of handling online piracy or copywright breakers. -

M.Brewer's curator insight, August 13, 2013 11:27 PM

this articles gives warning to copyright infringers from a very credible source the usnews.com. I believe it could havewent a little more in depth behind the reasoning but people know copyright infringement is wrong.

Luu Nguyen's curator insight, December 11, 2013 8:40 PM

Music copyright is a law that recognizes music as intellectual property and allows the owners of music to register them as their property. Music copyright gives the artist particular rights of reproduction , performing and sale of the music. Music copyright is divided into sound recording copyright and copyright of the composition itself. Music copyright is important because it makes sure that artists get from the music they produce. The copyright requires every individual to pay for recording, selling and distributing the music. Therefore, it ensures musicians earn their rightful profits by preventing music piracy. Music copyright is important to eliminate legal battles among musicians over who owns a particular song. However, listeners who need to pay for all the music they want to listen to.

I don't know why. Maybe it's very difficult to make puppet stop-motion, puppet animation...
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

Velikovskaya was undeterred, however, and without any help from her university she taught herself to make the puppets that come to life in her poetic short film. It tells the story of a little girl and her nutty grandfather -- an absent-minded inventor who ventures up and down a windy beach in Russia collecting other people's trash. The tiny granddaughter is embarrassed by his quirky habits, that is, until one stormy night, when he builds an enormous, singing beast from the junk he has gathered.
