Internet bot

Internet bots, also known as web robots, WWW robots or simply bots, are software applications that run automated tasks over the Internet. Typically, bots perform tasks that are both simple and structurally repetitive, at a much higher rate than would be possible for a human alone. The largest use of bots is in web spidering, in which an automated script fetches, analyzes and files information from web servers at many times the speed of a human. Each server can have a file called robots.txt, containing rules for...

    CubeStormer

    The Worlds Fastest Lego Mindstorms RCX Speedcubing Robot. Built entirely from lego elements with a lego web camera to scan the faces of the cube, The solve engine (algorithm) running on the computer is provided by the incredible "Cube Explorer "software which also provides the colour recognition required to determine the exact location of each coloured square. Thanks to Herbert Kociemba for making his work available to anyone wishing to use it! Respect! "Cube Explorer" has the ability to produce very fast solutions to a successfully scanned cube, usually around 20 face turns! Doesn't sound a lot , but it is believed that around 20 turns are enough to solve ANY 3x3x3 cube combination. I'm still working on "CubeStormer" I would like to see it reach sub-10 and feel it's close to that. but reliability begins to suffer when you start to push things just that bit too far..... Special thanks to David Gilday for his assistance with the software interface to Cube Explorer. ....Enjoy !

  • Internet Controlled Truck Robot

    Internet Controlled Truck Robot

    www.paintballsentry.com Drive it from anywhere in the world. This is just a simple test prototype. What i really have in mind is much better. Throughout the entire video the truck is being controlled over the web using custom client and server software (not with a regular RC remote). Skype is used to view the webcam mounted on the truck. Battery charge and WiFi signal strength data are sent back to the client. With a verizon internet card this thing could potentially go anywhere. I need to find a large tank chassis for the next prototype. it needs to be 3'x1' or larger and cost around $200 or less. that's around 1 scale I believe.. Specs: Traxxas Slash (this is not a good truck to use but it's better than buying one) extremely beefy springs from a hardware store. 65 turn motor with 90 tooth gear Acer Aspire one netbook. Wireless N adapter Microsoft VX-6000 webcam Pololu servo controller. Lots of zip ties and some hot glue.
