NASA's built a robot that stays out of the way of people via touch. Hilarious story and comments, IMHO.

Video mirrored here.

So what's the plan? We make the aliens so randy that they don't notice us secretly stealing their advanced plutonium-based space craft.

Mmm... Plutonium... :)
 
so is that how the robots in Star Wars and the like never ran into people.... hmmm


that is just so fricking odd though..... the movie was creepy
 
Wow that thing looks like some sort of sick erotic fantasy...a great way for NASA to use our tax money...it'll help the shuttle program, I'm sure. :rolleyes:
 
AHAHAHA

holy ****, i came in here expecting something stupid and pointless(well...), but it actually looks like a frickin wang, AHAHAHAHHAHAA

So is that what they mean by "rocket science"?

If that's rocket science then evidently I chose the wrong profession. You get paid big bucks and have billion dollar budgets to develop stuff like that? Sign me up! :cool:

Still not sure what she'll do with ten of them... nor does my imagination really want to go there. ;)

I'm gonna set it up like dominoes. line them all up, and then I'll try to touch the first one, and as they all turn to not touch each other (those robots must be homophobic or something!) I wanna see if they'll fall over.
or explode

it's like putting a humidifier and a dehumidifier next to each other in a room!

You are aware that it avoids touch, right? But... it is hairless... we all know you like that!

when I'm rich and crazy, you won't be so impudent.

that being said, I'll take 200!
 
May you find wealth with your dancing penis chorus line show off Broadway (off, off, OFF Broadway)... sorry to say, I won't be buying tickets, but perhaps members of a certain popular MR thread might. ;)

I'll give you a free ticket since you gave me $20 in pay pal.

man,
I'll have people lined up to see that show
can you imagine the astronauts that would see it?
Buzz aldrin would be like "YEA!" and give me money.

The show will be held in jsw's place, AKA his mom's basement.
:D:D

Thank you so much for making me imagine my mother and 200 dancing robotic penises, whether or not you'd also be there in a ballet costume.

I hope the nano never gets to you there in Kentucky. Hmmmph.

Edit: and PS, I live in the attic, not the basement, thank you very much!
