How Linux-powered helicopters are taking off
,----[ Quote ]
| Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) today are
| becoming smarter and are able to perform ever
| more difficult tasks. They can help find
| people in remote environments, or explore
| dangerous places.
|
| Nicolas Roy, from the Robust Robotics Group
| at MIT, leads a team that designed a
| quadcopter that won the International Aerial
| Robotics Competition last year. And guess
| what? It runs on Linux.

| Where's the robot revolution already? It's
| 2010! Aren't we supposed to be hip-deep in
| droids by now? Well, Spanish robot
| developer Francisco Paz thinks he's got
| the makings of a proverbial Ford Model T
| for robots, a cute little number called
| Qbot.
