Your Own Personal Robot

I have always loved robots. I loved the RC models of my father. They were my personal robots in my childhood. I was fascinated by R2D2 and C3PO. I dreamed of sending the next Mars Rovers.

Are you the same? Or are you just curious to know what robots can do today? Did you know that you could get your own household robot to free some time every week? If not, let me guide you in the world of robotics. Learn about how robots can be useful to you. Discover the most advanced robots and their skills. Find out what future robots will be able to do.

Which is your robot?

If you are like me, you may have wished for your personal robot for a long time. Either you want it to work for you, or to entertain you. Well, this kind of robots already exists, and I can help you find your match.

If you hate doing housework, look at what the home robots can do for you. If you want more fun, just go for a robot toy, like the Robosapien. And if you like challenges, hobby robots will keep you occupied for a long time.

What I like the most about all these robots is that you don't need to be a geek to use them anymore. Home Robots are just as simple as home appliances. Some hobby robots can help you learn programming without the need for knowledge in electronics.

The state-of-the-art robots

Are you interested in the state-of-the-art robots? Humanoid robots have learnt to walk, and are becoming more and more agile and realistic. Now they can dance around, interact naturally like your personal robot assistant. Some of them have even started conquering space.

Speaking of space robots, they are reaching grounds where no human has ever gone before. And they stay there, no matter the conditions. Some Mars Rovers have been exploring the Red Planet on their own for more than 6 years: what a great technology!

What about robots that save lives? From the battlefield to operation rooms, advanced robots can save many lives. Military robots can spy, diffuse landmines or scout dangerous caves. In the meantime, surgical robots enhance the skills of the surgeons for cleaner and safer operations.
