Leonardo's Robot
The humanoid knight could pretend to be a human. Operated by cables, and pulleys.It was developed by leonardo davinci The robot could stand, sit, raise its visor and move it's arms independantly. The whole system was operated by a series of pulleys and cables. The sketchbook of Leonardo Davinci shows that robot has been built and had been functional.The date is approximate. -
Difference Engine
It was used to calculate equations by cards, basically a large automatic calculator. The problem at the time was that there was human error when calculating, so that inspired Charles Babbage to build a error free calculator. -
Remote controlled Boat
It could move forward, backwards, left and right, all radio controlled, Tesla wanted an extraordinary way to demonstrate of his system for wireless transmission of energy [radio]. In 1898, at anl exhibition. -
Colossus computer
It could crack coded messages sent by germans, These were the world's first programmable, digital, electronic, computing devices.These were the world's first programmable, digital, electronic, computing devices. They used vacuum tubes just to perform the computers. -

Stanford arm
Victor Scheinman´s Stanford Arm made a breakthrough as the first successful electrically powered, computer-controlled robot arm.it guides itself with optical and contact sensors. It became a standard model for developing robot arms. -
Voyager 1 and 2
Deep space explorer satellites, It communicates with deep space network to receive commands and return data. It has now reached interstellar space, the furthest any manmade object has reacher -
Genghis
The first walking robot, built by the mobile robotics group from MIT. it was hexapodal robot, Genghis used 4 microprocessors, 22 sensors, and 12 servo motors -
ASIMO robot
A robot which could walk, adapts to different situations, and interacts with other humans. It was built to encourage studies of mathematics and science. -
curiosity mars rover
Curiosity is a car sized rover built to explore craters of mars. In 2012 april and early may, it went into autonomous operation. It continued to function and transmit data from mars. -
Steerable needle robot (clotbot)
The robot only needs only a small opening to do its work. It can be guided by ultrasound or CT imaging to the spot in the brain where of the blood clot. The needle extends ld is curved for bends.
