Well I work in IT and love it for the most part, but would give it up for some WoW and a good game of football.

FT Robot


Up till now, most bipedal robots that have been created have been either “male” or genderless, but this sleek miniature robot is in the female form. Called FT (Female Type) she stands 35cm tall and weighs a mere 800g, with 23 servos’ and 2 gyros’ to sustain stability and movement. This marvel in robotics can even walk like a fashion model. The Robo Garage team at Kyoto University took 13 months and 7 million yen to develop the FT. Although I like the new FT, I think my personal favourite is still the Chroino.
