Want to be a DJ? You can go hands on with a modified Wiimote called the WiiJ. But when you get serious the Kuka industrial robotic DJ is the only way to go!
Videos and more pictures after the jump.
“The Juke Bot is a pair of Kuka industrial robots; each is surrounded by a set of platters (you know, vinyl LPs). The two bots act independently, deftly grasping an LP, and then bringing it to a platform with a phonograph needle. Delicately, the robot presses the LP against the needle and begins to rotate it forward and backward, creating a unique performance sound.”

[…] 一般来讲我们使用机器便是为了替代人力，使用机器人更是为了高强度，危险或者是人类无法接受的环境和条件下去作业。但工作外，人类除了休息，更需要的便是娱乐。所以难免会同样把机器人应用到娱乐中，如Sony的“电子狗”，智能的电子宠物等等。但我们只能联想到这些小的，可爱的东西，但如下面图中的机械臂这种庞然大物，无论如何也不能和音乐DJ联系到一起的。但却成功的做实现了，真是让人惊叹！！ via，来源处有更多图片和两个YouTube视频，机器人DJ的音乐效果还是蛮不错的。 var tabPane1 = new WebFXTabPane( document.getElementById( “tab-pane-1″ ) ); […]
