AI Thread Summary
For a final year robotics project, combining a camera with robotic arms for assembly and disassembly tasks is suggested. The discussion highlights the importance of demonstrating competence or originality, with options ranging from building a physical robot to creating a simulation. Ideas include participating in competitions like fire-fighting robots and soccer robotics, as well as exploring chaotic exploration behavior through a proposed paper. The conversation also touches on the appeal of animatronic projects. Engaging in these innovative concepts can enhance learning and showcase skills in robotics.

Maybe combine a camera with a couple of arms to assemble and disassemble stuff?
 
Final year of what? Do you need to show competence or originality? Write a paper or just build something cool? Maybe just a simulation, they are _so_ much easier...

But I've been working with small real robot cars, so here're a few ideas.
First, the fire-fighting competition:

next, soccer:

and last, I just remembered this paper that was probably never published that modeled a chaotic exploration behavior:

maybe you could implement it?
 
heres one i thought was a cool idea

Wow. That animatronic dog and kid are pretty amazing...
 
Hey guys. I have a question related to electricity and alternating current. Say an alien fictional society developed electricity, and settled on a standard like 73V AC current at 46 Hz. How would appliances be designed, and what impact would the lower frequency and voltage have on transformers, wiring, TVs, computers, LEDs, motors, and heating, assuming the laws of physics and technology are the same as on Earth?
While I was rolling out a shielded cable, a though came to my mind - what happens to the current flow in the cable if there came a short between the wire and the shield in both ends of the cable? For simplicity, lets assume a 1-wire copper wire wrapped in an aluminum shield. The wire and the shield has the same cross section area. There are insulating material between them, and in both ends there is a short between them. My first thought, the total resistance of the cable would be reduced...
I used to be an HVAC technician. One time I had a service call in which there was no power to the thermostat. The thermostat did not have power because the fuse in the air handler was blown. The fuse in the air handler was blown because there was a low voltage short. The rubber coating on one of the thermostat wires was chewed off by a rodent. The exposed metal in the thermostat wire was touching the metal cabinet of the air handler. This was a low voltage short. This low voltage...
