Mike Ashe Posted March 12, 2007 Report Share Posted March 12, 2007 Truely awesome! However, I like my beer neither shaken, nor stirred, so I am thinking about a small tribot to get the beer and gently deliver it to me. This sounds like a job for: LEGO Mindstorms NXT! Quote Link to comment

Grampa_of_Oliva_n_Eden Posted March 15, 2007 Report Share Posted March 15, 2007 I heard the developer of the beer launching robot interviewed and he was questioned about the shaking. He said "It's all in the catch." A soft touch on the catch and the beer is not shaken. I saw this demonstrated. Intital version of the robot are expected to sell for about the price of 3 developers suites. I hope he succeeds. Ben Quote Link to comment

Awesome control, but still no delivery, and outside the normal budget QUOTE It seems like it's already been done but it's not LEGO.
