In fact, it's so complicated, that some researchers are giving up on that idea and using Segway balancing technology on their robots instead of legs. However, the folks at Sony seem to have taken the concept of the upright walking robot one step further: they've figured out how to make a robot run. That's right, it actually leaves the ground at points while jogging along. It apparently needs a bit of a walking start to get up to speed, and even at running speed, it's more of a slow jog - where it's feet barely leave the ground. Still, it's a start, and with some more work, they believe they can really make the robot run.

Welcome to the revolution: Phase 3Welcome to the revolution: Phase 3 09/19/2004 02:07 PM They say every revolution begins with a single act of defiance. And whether that defiance has come in the form of religion, government or manufacturing, it has always stemmed from some form of repression. Now, it seems, the repression is clutter, desktop real estate and gravity, and the revolution is being led by Apple. Since we first learned the world iMac, the all-in-one leader has shed 20 pounds and 10 inches, picked up 1792MB of RAM and 1.568GHz of CPU power, and sold 7.5 million units. Through all this, the iMac has become a cultural icon and, to the not-so-knowing public, has come to mean any computer that runs Mac OS. It saved a company — twice. It redefined the idea of desktop computing and gave people a reason to keep their CPU at eye level. It introduced the PC as an art form, and proved once and for all that computers weren’t just for businesses and geeks. It helped bring the Internet to the masses, demystify e-mail and boost the potential of the personal computer — even as iTunes, iMovie, iPhoto and the iPod came along, they functioned as additions to the centerpiece that was — and still is — the iMac. And now, those lucky few who were among the early risers on Aug, 31, are basking in the latest revolutionary glow. Enjoy it while it lasts. Just two short years ago, the iMac G4 was considered revolutionary, and now Apple has once again upped the ante, making the previous design look clumsy and bulky, and (dare I say it) old-fashioned. Of course, no revolution is complete without its dissention, and — as per usual — there are a fair number of philistines who have taken to mocking its design and taking swipes at what is arguably its only design flaw: its not-so-proportionate torso. And so it goes. What's sleek and exciting will become outdated in about two years. Even more so than the Power Mac or the PowerBook, the iMac has an uncanny ability to best itself with each redesign, making what was once eye-catching ordinary. And that's not even to speak of performance. So where does Apple go from here? With a G5 chip, the new iMac represents a significantly earlier adoption of a cutting-edge processor. The iMac scored a G3 just 10 months after it was unveiled, but the Power Mac G4 quickly erased any comparisons between consumer and professional. It took nearly three more years for the iMac to get a G4 chip. Then, Apple took the wraps off the G5 the following spring. While it seems as though the G5 chip is here to stay, could we be in store for a G6 in 2005? Apple has traditionally kept a fair amount of CPU space between its consumer and professional models, but now, the G5 represents a viable alternative for would-be Power Macers. With a built-in 20-inch screen, 2GB of RAM, a 250GB hard drive and a SuperDrive, it's certainly a capable machine — much like the Power Mac G4 and the Flat Panel iMac in early 2002. Keep your eyes on the horizon, because if history is any indicator, IBM and Apple have a few chips… er, tricks, up their sleeves.

By Joyce Ramirez, Manila Bulletin (via MyAppleMenu) The Revolution Will Not Be TelevisedThe Revolution Will Not Be Televised 11/06/2003 06:15 PM Amn est Int'l drops documentary after petition. Two Irish filmmakers were inside the palace during the coup in Venezuela in 2002 (also on MeFi: 1 2). I caught their powerful documentary, The Revolution Will Not Be Televised here in Chicago (review). The film was just recently dropped from Canada Amnesty International's upcoming film festival in Vancouver after opp osition parties in Venezuela organized a petition of over 7,000 signatures (mp3). The groups have concerns about it's accuracy, especially in it's characterization of the opposition to the democratically elected President Chavez. A petition supporting the film has been started as well. I found the movie stunning and a chilling account of how media outlets can shape, gauge and control public perception at home and abroad (ergo the Reagan miniseries debacle). Also notable I found was Chavez's passion to teach the poor to understand the constitution of their country - impoverished Venezuelans talking passionately about how they realize that understanding politics and policy is one of the first steps out of their poverty. I picture Jerry Springer trash trying to articulate any understanding of the U. S. constitution. Any Venezuela MeFi'ers wanna give a background on how the country had been faring since the coup and restoration? Was it a CIA action? I'm sure the honeymoon's over - how's it going?
