Post by: airman00 on July 27, 2009, 09:27:09 PM

Stumbled onto this today

Its a HUGE site about everything robotics.
Nothing really on the technical side, but tons of pictures.

that is a really strange site. Imagine how much download that would use compared to a more conventional site like SOR ;D

That site was just bizarre.  I wish there was more information on some of those pictures.  Would have liked to find out more about some of the robots.  Oh well....

I agree, that is an interesting, but bizarre website (it's laid out like a website from the 1990's).  Although the pictures are nice and even a good source of inspiration, about 70% of them are toys, costumes, fictional, or in other words "fake" robots.  This may be the reason for the sparse details, there really isn't any to be provided.
