Funny Drawing-Arm Robot
Uh, I just found this on YouTube. This evidentially homebrewed prototype of a drawing robot is looking so funny. It is just, because it looks almost scary human-like in its motions. But like a extremely clumsy (or drunken) one.

Perpetual Drawing Apparatus
Julius von Bismarck and Benjamin Maus teamed up in 2009 to build a "perpetual drawing machine". This plotter has access to 7.5 million "patent drawings", that are connected by semantic relationships. Each drawing is triggered by a keyword of one of the recent bestselling books. This work has a subtext: it tells, that patents "reflect the mindset of society in a certain time". Maybe it's just simply cool to have a "wild association machine".

Facadeprinter
The Facadeprinter is a portable machine, that fires paintballs at walls, to create sketches in an architectonical scale. The dot-like outcomes is reminding on typical old-school 4-color-dot-prints of the wooden-media.

DFKI presents Robot AILA at Hannover Messe 2010
This video of the Robot AILA makes me somehow speechless. The demonstration of this robot is flanked by a visionary speech or script, telling about intelligent robots, that enable assisting to human, especially with autonomous object-recognition etc, etc. Well if I look at this, than it's a pleasure for me to cite my collegue from Doktorsblog: "Oh Jesus, she can hold it!"
