Here are the 10 coolest robot concepts of 2015.
Robots have come a long way over the past years, and those both imagined and developed in 2015 are no exception.
Here are 10 of the year’s coolest offerings.
Number 10. Laundroid. Not only can this Panasonic creation wash and dry, it can identify items and fold them accordingly.
Number 9. NASA’s alien ocean explorer. Many celestial bodies have seas needing to be examined, and this iunderwater rover is currently being trained and tweaked to do the job.
Number 8. Spot. The canine-inspired quadruped was developed by Boston Dynamics to assist Marine troops by scouting sites and carrying heavy loads.
Number 7. Hedgehog. Space rovers are presented with all sorts of environmental and gravitational challenges, and the goal for this one is to hop, roll, and bounce along with them.
Number 6. Starfish killer. The Great Barrier Reef is sustaining damage due to large populations of the multi-legged creatures, and developers hope their aquatic terminator will help contain the problem.
Number 5. Pepper. Designed to sense what a person’s feeling and do away one’s tears if necessary, the emotional support robot sold out almost immediately upon its release.
Number 4. Gecko-Inspired MiniBot. Despite tipping the scales at only 0.3-ounces, the little wonder can lift a couple of pounds and pull up to 2,000 times its weight.
Number 3. Swarmbots. Once launched out of a cannon of sorts, the airborne robots synchronize with one another to perform a variety of complex maneuvers.
Number 2. eMotionButterflies. Also designed to operate together as one, these roughly 1-ounce beauties were created to demonstrate how light and tiny drones can be.
Number 1. Pleurobot. In addition to looking and moving like a salamander, the robot is capable of maneuvering both on land and in water, just like the real thing.
