WowWee continues its cuddly robo-assault today, backing up the revamped FlyTech and Robotics gear with the Alive Lion, a furry robo-pet with "lifelike responses." The Lion features realistic fur, an animated face, and several feline-like reactions, like going limp when picked up by the scruff of the neck and falling asleep when left alone for five minutes. The Lion should be shipping soon, but the entire Alive line will get bigger later this year with the addition of the Alive White Tiger Cub, the Alive Panda Cub, and the Alive Polar Bear Cub.

If you're not into cuddly, WowWee's got you covered with its new Fun series, which is comprised of several miniature Bug-Bots. Coming in several wheeled and treaded version, the bugs each have different particular skills, and touch sensors will enable several to interact as a swarm. In addition to the Bug-Bots, the Fun line will also include miniature versions of Wrex the Dawg, Tribot, and FemiSapien. Check 'em all out in the gallery!
Alive 系列目前只有即將出貨的這隻 Alive Lion，但年內它將再增加 Alive White Tiger Cub（白虎）、Alive Panda Cub（貓熊）和 Alive Polar Bear Cub（北極熊）三個伙伴。
對毛過敏的朋友 WowWee 也沒忘記，推出了主角是幾隻迷你機械蟲的全新 Fun 系列。這幾隻蟲有些是輪式的，有些是覆帶式的，但總之每隻都有不同的特異功能，並且有感應器讓它可以成群結隊地亂跑。另外，幾隻大號機器人的迷你版也是 Fun 系列的成員喔！

2007即將過去. 
感謝各位大大ㄉ支持. 
也感謝這一年不斷提供資訊給此布洛格的所有相關來源. 
期許2008., 
將有更多更棒的機器人ROBOT的資訊. 

雖然 Pleo 上市日還在未定之天，我們卻挖到了這個有趣的小東西：Pleo 的蛋！其實這是台灣代理商 uCube 為台灣的 Pleo 準備的獨家贈品。大家要不要來猜猜看這是什麼啊？   
答案是 Pleo 的充電器 XD。

The happiest place on Earth (Disneyland, not Las Vegas during CES) just got a little happier this week, thanks to a new exhibit called the Muppet Mobile Laboratory that roams the park and delights visitors with inane banter and sprays of water. Probably having nothing to do with the fact that the human costumed characters like to videotape themselves in suggestive poses while still in uniform, Disney decided to eschew flesh and bone for metal and silicon when it tasked the Imagineering studio with whipping up California Adventure's newest residents, Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his always chipper, possibly speed-addicted friend Beaker. The two wacky companions approach groups of visitors in their remotely-controlled, cartoonish rocket ship, and thanks to operators monitoring embedded cameras, microphones, and speakers, are able to to carry on eerily-realistic conversations that incorporate actual traits of the audience members. The L.A. Times reminds us that the MML is only the latest in a long line of animatronic entertainers, from the Enchanted Tiki Room and Mr. Lincoln in the 60's to Lucky the Dinosaur and Crush the Turtle in the new millennium -- but Honeydew and Tweaker Beaker are the first that can be modified to entertain in almost any environment. Disney expects the new tech -- which enables remote operation from as far away as Glendale -- to eventually expand its stable of characters to include some of the Muppets who are too small to be played by actors (as opposed to mice, dogs, and ducks, which are just the right size), so next time the kids finally wear you down and win another trip to the Magic Kingdom, at least you'll be able to pass the time by chasing around little Chip 'n Dales or wirelessly hacking Kermit to tell the kiddies what he really thinks of that flaky pig.

Update: Now with video! Check it out after the break. Big thanks to commenter John and YouTube member JLOatesIII.

There was a lot of fun stuff at this year's ITP Winter Show, but Single White Android stole our hearts with his dejected expressions, glowing belly and brightly-lit excitability. Oh, and saran wrap, lots of saran wrap. The bot isn't terribly complicated, his belly glows red when he wants you to touch it, and when you do he lights up with joy. Hey, it's the little things, and while SWA might not be giving biped humanoids a run for research dollars anytime soon, he certainly managed to elicit some emotion from his audience.
今年的ITP（Interactive Telecommunications Program，互動電訊專題）冬季展上有許多有趣的玩意兒，Single White Android （可別和 Google 的 Android 混在一起）就是其中之一。這個機器人並不複雜，當他的腹部不適時（需要你的愛撫）就會變紅，你撫摸過後，他全身的[白]燈就會逐漸亮起，表達愉悅與感激之情。

BE-ROBOT
在國外光榮歸國後.,
再度接受台灣頒獎."金像獎"
此獎由"中華工商經貿科技發展協會"頒.

極趣科技又再次光榮歸國.實在是太感動了! 該說感謝祖國嗎? 不過無論如何.都希望中國人可以趕快光榮的做出更多ROBOT產品. 讓龍的傳人.傲視全球~ 本次獲的"行走機器人競賽.企業組"冠軍. 那是當然要的阿. 全球最小的機器人.當然速度快.一樣高階伺服馬達~動作可快的ㄋ!! PMC機器人報導

消防機器人，甚至還有機器人滅火比賽，我們之前都有過詳盡的報導。不過這批來自Qinetiq的勇者們，才是我們應該敬重的英雄，因為他們是首批獲准上路的機器人消防員。

據Popular Mechanics所述，雖然這批機器人功能有限，僅能用來撲救易爆的乙炔氣導致的火災，不過在通行不便的火場，這些機器人還是能發揮巨大作用的。

俗話說，一個好漢三個幫，Qinetiq也明白人多力量大的道理，一次派出了3個機器人參加為期6個月的試用。三者分工明確：隊長Talon配備了熱成影像儀器，能夠判斷火災情勢；2,160磅重的Brokk 90是開路先鋒；ATV體型的Black Max負責滅火。可惜當下機器人智慧技術尚未成熟，暫時由人遙控指揮。相信在不久的將來，機器人會將自己真正的本事證實給我們看。
