It’s been awhile since I’ve updated the geeky list of robot links.\u00a0 Since that time, a few more of come to my attention… here are just a few:<\/p>\n

I realize a couple of these are repeats… I’m hoping that by saying the name “Whitebox Robotics” 3 times a day, they won’t turn into vaporware.\u00a0 I’m a little concerned though.<\/p>\n

Also, I want to buy my grandmother an Aibo since she is a little too up-there in years to keep a real dog.\u00a0 I’ve seen a lot of information about research on the subject, but no one has published any findings.\u00a0 If you can point me in the direction of robotic pets (specifically Aibo) and the elderly, I’d appreciate it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
