Robot ‘advances’ in Automated Driving.

If you’re planning for some downtime this holiday, try curling up with one of these robot/AI-themed movies recommended by the Robohub team.

From Penny and Harry at Robot Drive-In Movies:

Seasons Greetings, We have been watching your xmas robot videos – they are great! Ours features Ozobot, a small line-sensing robot being sold as a game piece. To us, he is an actor! In this case, Santa!

From the University of Texas at Arlington Research Institute (UTARI):

Hello Robohub!

Here is our holiday video highlighting some of our robotic capabilities in a fun festive way. Enjoy the holiday from all of us here at the UT Arlington Research Institute!

Because you can never get enough of robots we compiled this list of fashion and accessories so you can show off your addiction. Ugly robot christmas sweater, anyone?

Busy times, but I finally managed to complete my comic dealing with all of the great polls about Automated Driving here on Robohub. If you enjoy reading Nate, check out his other wacky adventures at Nate’s website.

While Nate doesn’t appear in today’s comic, you can learn more about Nate’s wacky life at his Website.

Special thanks again to “NateFan”, whose comment inspired today’s comic.

I hope the characters referenced from NASA are good sports, I figured they’d crack up over Nate’s “findings” regarding facial expressions in near zero gravity.

In the comments below, tell me, what questions would researchers want answered about Nate’s experiences on Mars? I’ll select the best and make comics out of them (showing how Nate answers) in the next few weeks, and we can find out what kind of trouble Nate gets into . . .

I guess all those other Mars rovers just landed in the wrong spot? I had this idea yesterday to try something a little different.
