Probabilistic robotics is a new and growing area in robotics, concerned with perception and control in the face of uncertainty. Building on the field of mathematical statistics, probabilistic robotics endows robots with a new level of robustness in real-world situations.
Reconfigurable robot tools, and their integration can save large sums of the total cost of a robot cell. In this video reconfigurable, automated robot tool / hand changer designs and some applications are discussed and demonstrated in detail. The focus is on small-batch sensory-feedback controlled assembly, part loading, and other flexible robot cells. Robot tools, or in more general terms, end-of-arm tools, hands, or robot end-effectors are general purpose, programmable or task-oriented devices connected between the robot wrist and the object, or load to be manipulated and/or processed by the robot. Reconfigurable robot tooling enables the robot to rapidly change its end effectors, or fingers of its end effectors, typically under programmable software control. This task is complicated by the fact that modern end-of-arm tools can include several power supply options, such as mechanical, electric, pneumatic, hydraulic and other, contact and/or non-contact sensors, offering touch / slip / force/ torque sensing, 2D or 3D vision, providing fast and reliable sensory feedback-control for the arm control computer to calculate safe and efficient trajectories.
Acclaimed one of the "seminal books . . . comparable in ultimate importance to . . . Galileo or Malthus or Rousseau or Mill", Cybernetics was judged by twenty-seven historians, economists, educators, and philosophers to be one of those books published during the "past four decades," which may have a substantial impact on public thought and action in the years ahead." -- Saturday Review

When you sit back in an Human Touch iJoy-100 Therapeutic Robotic Massage Chair, it's like having your own personal massage therapist at your fingertips. Has the day's stress put kinks in your upper back? Maybe a full day of shopping with the kids has your lumbar region bothering you. Or perhaps you want some true love for your entire back just because you deserve it. With the iJoy-100, you can get exactly what you want and when you want it. Just sit back, hit the chair's remote, and this chair will give you the massage that you and your back deserve.
E-commerce increasingly provides opportunities for autonomous bidding agents: computer programs that bid in electronic markets without direct human intervention. Automated bidding strategies for an auction of a single good with a known valuation are fairly straightforward; designing strategies for simultaneous auctions with interdependent valuations is a more complex undertaking. This book presents algorithmic advances and strategy ideas within an integrated bidding agent architecture that have emerged from recent work in this fast-growing area of research in academia and industry.
Built by the world's leading robotic massage chair company, the Human Touch Technology (HTT) mecha in iJoy 130 actually simulates the hands, arms and wrists of a trained, massage therapist. The iJoy features 3 automatic programs: Full, Upper or Lower. In the Manual mode, you are able to customize your massage, positioning the rollers to the exact spot that's best for you. Made in a soft, luxurious, easy-care, brushed velour. With a backrest that reclines from 110- to 155-degrees, iJoy includes a wired remote controller and features a soft, supple, adjustable lumbar/cervical pillow to provide extra support and comfort wherever you desire. You'll be amazed at the quality, intensity and affordability of this powerful little workhorse. For those who prefer milder, gentler massage-therapy sessions, an included foam-filled, Massage Softening Pad can be inserted to soften the intensity. Perfect for the game room, college dorm room, apartment, loft, or recreation room, iJoy makes the perfect gift for grads and dads. Live. Play. Relax. Don't miss out on the joy.

Evidence that the robotic dinosaur revolution is spreading, this Roboraptor comes fully assembled and ready to roam the earth with his robotic dinosaur cousins. He has movable arms, a swiveling head, a sweeping tail, and a chomping jaw full of pointy teeth. Measuring 32 inches from nose to tail, the Roboraptor is a big enough to intimidate any smaller predator that may come along. While this raptor hasn't yet developed his full hunting skills, he's still a lot of fun and comes with over 40 preprogrammed functions, three distinct moods, and the ability to detect things in its path with infrared vision. He also comes equipped with automatic shutoff and a demo mode. Roboraptor is steady on his feet, but works best on smooth, hard surfaces. --Heather Lyndon
