New Printable Robots To Automatically
Assemble When Heated

<p>MIT's Ankur Mehta is lead researcher on a project that quite literally enables people to print robots on a standard piece of paper at home.</p>
<p>It might sound crazy, but there's a lot of complicated math to back up the fact that you can create nearly any shape you like by folding paper. Once you've created the proper shape, Mehta demonstrated that you can combine it with about $20 worth of electronics to create a fully functioning robot.</p>
<p>The heavy lifting is done by the software that generates these designs, employing a branch of mathematics called computational geometry. For example, a user can tell the software he wants a two-wheeled robot of a certain size, and it will generate a cut-and-fold pattern that looks like this:</p>
<p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/53443272ecad048d52084739-1200-924/img_2672-3.jpg" border="0" alt="printable bots" /><p class="source"><span>Dylan Love</span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p>
<p>You can use an off-the-shelf vinyl cutter to make super-precise cuts automatically, but Mehta emphasized that a person could do just as well with a ruler and X-Acto knife.</p>
<p><span style="line-height: 1.5em;">Mehta's team's method has been used to successfully create designs as varied as a hexapod insect-like robot that waddles around on the floor to a claw-like gripper mechanism that can pick up and hold objects.</span></p>
<p>The project has been funded by a <a href="http://www.csail.mit.edu/node/1717">$10 million grant from the National Science Foundation</a>, and with good reason - it completely solves the problem of robotics being too expensive, which will make it an amazing tool for robotics education. It also means that if your pet completely shreds your robot, you're only out one piece of paper.</p>
<p>Mehta told us that the printable robot system is essentially only limited by your imagination.</p>
<p>Here's a line-following robot built on this principle (this one happens to be cut out of vinyl rather than paper). It uses an LED to detect the black line, and when it senses that it's over white space, it turns around and follows the line back the way it came.</p>

MIT Is Destroying The Cost Of Robotics By Building Robots Out Of Paper

<p>Intel will have a open-source robot available for consumers by the end of the year, <a href="http://recode.net/2014/05/28/heeeeeeres-jimmy-intels-3-d-printed-robot-will-hit-the-market-later-this-year/">the company announced today during Re/Code's tech conference.</a></p>
<p>It'll be capable of a variety of things on its own. Intel futurist Brian David Johnson demoed his robot (named Jimmy), where it walked, talked, danced, and tweeted.</p>
<p>The robot is an open-source design, which means the plans will be freely available for people to build their own at home. (You'll want a 3-D printer for this). You'll be able to modify it as you see fit. The non-3D-printable parts - motors, processors, and the like - will be available for purchase as a kit from <a href="http://21stcenturyrobot.com/">21stCenturyRobot.com</a>.</p>
<p>There will eventually be an app marketplace, something akin to Apple's App Store, but for robots. "<span>It's like a smartphone with legs," said Johnson. "Your robot will be completely different from mine; you customize it and program the artificial intelligence, not by having a PhD in robotics, but by downloading apps."</span></p>
<p><span>Jimmy can't do much right now aside from the previously mentioned walking and dancing, but the important takeaway here is that this robot will represent a drastically reduced barrier for those wanting to enter robotics. The open source nature of the bot means people will continue to develop for it well after its release, and those developments can continue to be tweaked and modified by a community of hobbyists. Intel may very well be introducing the first humanoid robot you actually see in people's homes.</span></p>
<p><span>Below is a quick video introduction to Jimmy, and below that is a presentation from 2013 (it starts around the seven minute mark) that shows Johnson speaking at length about robots in general and Jimmy in particular.</span></p>

We are reproducing the summary for <a href="http://www.horizons.gc.ca/eng/content/digital-and-communication-technology">emerging digital and communications technologies</a>.</em></p>
<p><em><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image"><img src="https://static-ssl.businessinsider.com/image/534d710d6da811b42c7b5264-1200-600/minority-report-computer-screen.jpg" border="0" alt="Minority Report computer screen" /><p class="source"><span><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Minority-Widescreen-Two-Disc-Special-Edition/dp/B00005JL78">"Minority Report"</a></span></p><p class="caption">Coming soon?</p></div><p></p></div></div></em>Below are technologies related to digital and communications under three key areas of accelerating change. In electronics, advances take the form of faster computers, flexible and printable electronics, and smaller and better sensors. In networking, the trend is towards more interoperability between networks, higher bandwidth and more virtual services. In human interfaces, we see change converging on more portable devices and enormously improved telepresence between people.</p>
<p>We have included a technological timeline based on consultation with experts, predicting when each will be scientifically viable - the kind of stuff that Google, governments, and universities deal with - mainstream - when VCs and startups widely invest in it - and financially viable - when the technology is generally available on Kickstarter.</p>
<h2>Electronics</h2>
<p><strong>Digital currencies:</strong> Electronic money that acts as alternative currency. Currently, alternative digital currencies are not produced by government-endorsed central banks nor necessarily backed by national currencies. It differs from virtual money used in virtual economies due to its use in transactions with real goods and services; not being limited to circulation within online games.</p>
<p>Scientifically viable today; mainstream in 2016; financially viable in 2017.<strong><br /></strong></p>
<p><strong>Botsourcing:</strong> The assignment of physical and online tasks traditionally performed by human agents to an autonomous software agent.</p>
<p>Scientifically viable in 2017; mainstream and financially viable in 2020.</p>
<p><strong>Smart dust sensors:</strong> A system of many tiny microelectromechanical systems such as sensors, robots, or other devices, that can detect, for example, light, temperature, vibration, magnetism, or chemicals.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable in 2022; mainstream in 2024; and financially viable in 2027.</span></p>
<p><strong>Printed electronics:</strong> A set of printing methods used to create electrical devices on various substrates. Electrically functional or optical inks are deposited on the material, creating active or passive devices, such as thin film transistors or resistors. Printed electronics is expected to facilitate widespread, very low-cost, low-performance electronics for applications such as flexible displays, smart labels, decorative and animated posters, and active clothing that do not require high performance.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable in 2021; mainstream and <span>financially viable </span>in 2022.</span></p>
<p><strong>Memristors:</strong> The reason why the memristor is so different from the other three basic circuit elements is that it retains memory without power. It is a new material that promises computers two orders of magnitude more efficient from a power perspective than traditional transistor technologies, contains multiple petabits of persistent storage, and can be reconfigured to be either memory or CPU in a package as small as a sugar cube.</p>
<p>Scientifically viable in 2018; mainstream in 2022; financially viable in 2025.</p>
<h2>Networking</h2>
<p><strong>MOOCs:</strong> Massive Open Online Courses are a type of online course aimed at large-scale participation and open access via the web.</p>
<p>Scientifically viable and mainstream today; financially viable in 2021.</p>
<p><strong>5G:</strong> A predicted future fifth generation of mobile telecommunications, expected to be the next major phase of mobile telecommunications standard as well as a proposed single global standard.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable in 2016; mainstream in 2017; financially viable in 2022.</span></p>
<p><strong>WiGig:</strong> Wireless Gigabit will deliver up to 6 Gbps [6,000 Mbps] connections between devices in interior spaces. This will enable wireless displays, much like Wi-Fi did for wireless networking.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable in 2016; mainstream in 2021; financially viable in 2022.</span></p>
<p><strong>High-altitude stratospheric platforms:</strong> A quasi-stationary aircraft that provides means of delivering networking to a large area while flying at a very high altitude (17-22 km) over cities for several years. They are effectively low-orbit regional communication satellites.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable in 2022; mainstream in 2026; financially viable in 2027.</span></p>
<h2>Interfaces</h2>
<p><strong>Context-aware computing: </strong>Computers that can both sense and react to their environment. Devices will have information about the circumstances under which they operate, and based on rules and sensor inputs, react accordingly. Context-aware devices may also learn assumptions about the user's current situation.</p>
<p>Scientifically viable today; mainstream and financially viable <span>in 2017</span>.</p>
<p><strong>Annotated-reality glasses:</strong> Much like Google's Glass project, these allow contextual information to be overlaid on the user's field of vision.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable today; mainstream in 2019; financially viable </span><span>in 2020</span><span>.</span></p>
<p><strong>Wall-sized screens:</strong> Tileable and interactive screen-wallpapers are expected to dominate all types of surfaces for domestic and professional uses. Wrap-around screens recruit the peripheral vision and create a truly immersive experience</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable in 2017; mainstream in 2022; financially viable </span><span>in 2023</span><span>.</span></p>
<p><strong>Telepresence:</strong> A set of technologies which allow a person to feel as if they were present, to give the appearance of being present, or to have an effect, via telerobotics, at a place other than their true location.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable today; mainstream in 2024; financially viable </span><span>in 2025</span><span>.</span></p>
<p><strong>Immersive multi-user VR:</strong> A fully immersive Virtual Reality environment to which the user connects through direct brain stimulation. All senses would be stimulated, diffusing the boundary between reality and fiction.</p>
<p><span>Scientifically viable and mainstream in 2026; financially viable </span><span>in 2027</span><span>.</span></p>
