Drones have drastically changed over the years. Some resemble planes, UFO's, and even birds. Specifically, when I say birds, I mean FESTO. It's by far the most impressive robotic bird to date. Now I'm not going into detail about this robotic bird, but you can view the video above to learn about it.

A few days ago, DARPAtv (the youtube channel for DARPA) uploaded a video showing off their latest robot named Pet-Proto. The robot was given the challenge of climbing stairs and avoiding a huge gap in a given path. With all the new technology that was out into this robot, it was able to climb the stairs with little effort. It also got past the gap by spreading it's arms and legs to grip the nearby wall to traverse right through. All these tasks were achievable because of Pet-Proto's specially designed legs. If your interest in this bot, then check out the video above!

Out of all the humanoid robots in the world, Nao (in my opinion) has performed Gangnam Style the best. By enabling Nao to execute short an efficient leg movements, TheAmazel succeeded at getting his robot to perform the internet's favorite dance.

Since nothing relating to robotics has really stood out today, I decided to share this amazing Lego robot video with you. It shows a small Lego robotic arm drawing the Mona Lisa. Don't take my for it, check out the video above to see for yourself.

Wouldn't it be awesome if a robot drew a portrait of you? If you think so, then give a round of applause to "6 robots named Paul." These servo driven arm robots were demonstrated at the Merge Festival 2012 in London. Since the festival was partly dedicated to art, these bots fit right in. With just 4 servos and a computer, each robot was able to draw a dazzling portrait. It's obvious that these bots were the real McCoy when it came to artistic ability. If you don't believe me, then just check out the video above. Anyways, thanks for reading and feel free to comment below!

Here's another simple robot that uses an ingenious method to solve a problem. I call it "toothpick bot," since it randomly flings toothpicks to make a crossable bridge. Check out the video above to see this robot's problem solving technique. I may even make this sorta robot with my vex kit, so be on the look out for a new post that features my robot.

Bio-inspired robots always tend to fascinate me, whether there bugs, birds, or even dogs. Now there's even a robotic turtle in the making. Researchers at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology began a project back in 2010 called "Naro-Tartaruga." It's a robotic turtle that will be used for underwater robotics research. Since this robot can mimic the movements of a real turtle, swimming underwater won't be that big of a problem. Multiple actuators connected to each wooden fin enable the robot to have smooth and fluid-like movements just like a real turtle. The robot's hull is so tough that it even can withstand water pressure at a depth of 300 ft. Right now, the most recent video of this robot shows off the smooth fin movement. Thanks for reading and check out, www.naro.ethz.ch for more info on this nautical robot!

The newest telepresence robot on the market is called "Double." It's simple, minimalistic, and it supports the iPhone and iPad. With it's simple design, users are able to maneuver this bit around without being an annoyance to other people. It's long neck is also adjustable, and this insures that anyone can use this robot.When the robot is at a complete stop, retractable kick stands activates. Therefore, saving power and relieving motor stress. One charge alone can run this 15 lb. robot all day long, so you don't have to worry about a dead battery interrupting your conversation. All in all, this root seems pretty nice in the category of telepresence robots. If your interested in purchasing one, then check out doublerobotics.com. Otherwise, thanks for reading and check out the video above to see this bot in action!

Today, Orbotix released an update for the Sphero app. The update includes more customizable settings and a completely new UI. It's customizable settings include changing Sphero's name, changing the UI theme, and a new customizable boost button. The UI is completely redesigned, and its like nothing I have ever seen before. It has new speed controls, a new joy stick layout, and new pre-programmed tricks. I'm already enjoying Sphero a lot more just because of this visually stunning update. Thanks for reading and check out the screen shot below to see what I mean!

Lately, Micro-sized robots have been buzzing around the web. Some people think there's a conspiracy of a robotic spy mosquito. However, instead of a spying mosquito, we now have a pollinating robotic bee. Scientists at the University of Sheffield and Suffex in England have started a new project which aims to create robotic bees. Since real bees are dying out, they believe that robotic bees are necessary to them in an environment. The solution they have in mind is to create micro-sized robotic bees that have the ability to pollinate flowers just like a normal bee. Even if the real bees die out soon, they speculate that these bots should be buzzing around by 2015. Thank for reading and check out the video above for more info!

If you're interested in building awesome robotics projects without that much background knowledge, then this book is perfect for you. "Robotics: Discover the Science and Technology of the Future with 20 Projects," is a fairly new book that has 20 simple robotics projects. Although they are simple, they're still amazing. For example, it shows readers how to construct a tilt sensor out a straw and some safety pins. Other projects include actuated arms, a coffee ground gripper, and even an artificial hand. I don't know about you, but i think all this would make MacGyver proud. If you're interested in purchasing this book, then stop by Barnes and Noble and pick one up for $16.00. Thanks for reading and check out the video above to see some of those awesomely simple projects.
