Cool robots from Festo HQ

These are robots made by the German Company Festo
And yes, they are real



Not NXT but it may give inspiration to build something

NXT bowling

Here are two examples of bowling alleys with NXT
I like the way they set up the pins after being knocked down

 

 YouTube user comicsacrifice built a simply NXT-driven machine that operates a game controller to restore his Skyrim video game character's health to maximum.

Don't you ever say again that LEGO® MINDSTORMS isn't useful in real life...

Now we need one that'll beat the whole game for you ;)

NXT Model of Curiosity

On Nov. 26 NASA has launched the new Mars rover Curiosity. The car-size robot spacecraft is the most sophisticated Mars space probe ever and expected to land on the Red Planet in August next year.
For the launch event, MCP Will Gorman created a NXT model of Curiosity that was on display yesterday inKennedy Space Center:

Queboid Shooters

 Mark Crosbie has built a robot called Queboid.

He has published building instructions now for a shooter version of it (below, there's a video of the Queboid shooter in action at WRO).

Big Crazy robot

You may have seen this crazy big robot on Youtube...
 

Segaway up a steep hill

There is a renewed program for the NXT Segway called RobotC

The current program handles all balancing tasks in the background so you can make the Segway do what you want without worrying about balancing. It supports both the HiTechnic Gyro sensor and the new Dexter Industries dIMU. The complete source and instructions are available on my website.

The older ready to run NXT-G version of the program (only supports HiTechnic Gyro) is also still available.
