På en båt!
Det här är bara ett exempel av många, men jag kan inte sluta förundras/älska det faktum att "på en båt" äntligen blivit en internetmeme!
Är det nån som har något att erkänna?
Jag tittar på dig och ditt egenmäktiga förfarande med internetet Andy!

dagens robot: andra generationens bowlingrobot ägd av gubbe
tydligen kan inte roboten, EARL, kompensera efter resultat (än) utan kursen måste justeras manuellt av en operatör. Väntar tills generation tre innan jag investerar i den här inför jobbets årliga bowlingturnering, tror jag.

dagens robot
Den nya Pleo-versionen är här! Den heter Pleo RB, och tillverkas numera av Jetta efter att företaget bakom Pleo, Ugobe, gick i konkurs 2009.
En hel del förbättringar både "på" och under huven... Nyheter i den senaste versionen följer nedan.
-Pleos are now male or female (blue or pink), and will react to each other accordingly: females make gentle noises at each other, males step back and shout at each other, and a male and female will make noises and lean against each other
-Pleo skin coloring will be randomized slightly, so that two Pleos produced at the same time will look distinctive. There will also be 10 different eye colors.
-Pleo skin durability improved, should now last 5x longer
-New lithium polymer battery more than doubles lifetime to 120 – 150 minutes, LED battery indicator added underneath Pleo
-Pleo will have a ’seed’ personality from the factory. Some will learn faster than others, and some will tend to be happier (or more mopey).
-Pleo now knows what time it is and will alter its behaviors accordingly; for example, it will want to be fed in the afternoon and act sleepy in the evening
-Pleo can ’smell’ RFID tags
-Pleo now has voice recognition, and you can name it, and it will respond to that name… As long as it’s you saying it, not anyone else
-By combining RFID tags that instruct Pleo to perform specific behaviors with voice recognition, it’s now possible to train Pleo to respond to different commands, such as “bow” or “come to me”
-Many more touch sensors have been added, along with corresponding behaviors. For example, if you pet Pleo’s side, it will lean into you.
-Pleo now has a G sensor that lets it detect acceleration and impacts as well as touch
-Pleo’s nose cam now allows for target tracking
-Motor speed and response have been improved, especially in the tail, head, and neck
