Just as expected, numerous humanoid robots are now
exhibiting problems in the low battery state. In the latest
Robot magazine, reviews indicated the dangerous conditions
that exhume resulting in servos locking in damaging
positions, not to mention the potential for causing bodily
harm and injury.
I've blogged numerous times on this, and recently put an
invention into good use that prevents this condition from
happening. The EP - Energy Procrastinator allows the
humanoid to prevail in the best energy conditions, thereby
avoiding L-B-S.

Plans are advancing well towards the completion of all new
web sites, in particular for robotics, inclusive of
humanoid robots. Other web pages may include robotic
telescopes, optics, space time equations, and the OBS. One
or more pages should include the assortment of various
inventions. In particular, I'd like to open up sections for
humanoid AI programming, to build up a reference library of
functions.
Battery research is continuing, and a study of the
effects of voltage levels upon servos. Servos are quite
sensitive to drops in supply voltage. The study is named SSB
- Servo Study of Batteries. It's inclusive of determining
the effects of voltage regulators and stability based on
battery voltage.
In order for humanoids function properly, a clean voltage
regulated source is primary. Battery technology is still
archaic, and new more powerful sources, such as LiPo can be
dangerous if not properly handled. However, for the time
being, the use of batteries is inevitable until Honda
develops a fuel cell for Asimo and that technology filters down.

The International Humanoid Robotics Exposition went
well and so did the software and hardware interfaces. So
far, the HIS Humanoid International Study has extended to
the USA, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and China. I'm looking
forward to additional travel to new countries to continue
this project.
WIN XP is now handling at least one humanoid platform for
programming and motion control. One humanoid was down with
an ankle problem requiring some maintenance which went
smoothly. Due to a high volume of use, this humanoid has had
approximately 12 mechanical repairs involving arms, legs,
ankles, and shoulders.
At least 35 projects are all going on at the same time to
accelerate the accomplishments per unit time. However, not
all projects are updated in the projects section. I'll try
to get to this in time. Some of the newer projects are
hardware related. At this time the majority of the projects
involve extensive software.
Some thought is being placed into the concept of a book to
document the rapid development of humanoid inventions. I
will need much of my laboratory equipment and will have to
pick that up during another trip to the laboratory which may
happen later this year.
Some time was spent on a new invention for the observatory,
i.e. a new kind of telescope. Additional time was spent on
the world's famous remote robotic telescope. I hope to have
some clear weather after the rainy season passes to get some
clear proof of concept images through the scope. A third
invention was designed which directly involves accelerating
the capabilities of Otis Observatory and establishing its
perimeter to new countries.
Some work was aimed towards developing a safety device for
world wide use. In addition to a hardware product, a virtual
product is in the design that encompasses the humanoid
robot. It will be interesting to measure the results once
the VR programming is completed.
A small amount of time was spent studying a computer cam and
examining the potential range in imaging applications.
Another study was imaging software related to gain numerous
functions for vision and clarity. A lens study was completed
that compared various EFLs using several virtual oculars.
This went excellent, and the gain, in addition to optical,
produced some exquisite results, worthy of paper publication.

I'm preparing for another Humanoid Robotics International
trip. This exposition leaves several choices - China, Japan,
and Korea as the top three. The knowledge and experiences
from these trips are paramount. Japan is the host of
ROBO-ONE 11 around this date. Korea is one of the top
leaders in humanoid products. China is noted for its
manufacturing environment. It's going to be a tough decision.
This week, the software in the pc is being updated by
correcting the bugs in the new IE7. This version of IE is
now removed and has been replaced with a more reliable
Mozilla browser with greater security.
Backup issues are now solved using large external storage
devices. This helps greatly as the computers can now be
hosed on a regular basis while retaining the data safely.
Several new projects, ongoing, were introduced in the past 2
weeks. These now include various personality behaviors for
the prime humanoid. The Massive Humanoid Index (MHI) was
established and one PT (Personality Trait) was updated.

The Humanoid Robotics Lab made another breakthrough today.
It's now possible to improve the humanoid walking gate
using an existing RTPLR (Real Time) processing learning
realm. This device process learns on the fly based on FPI
(Fed Parametric Information). I believe, if the success of
this development continues, it will be possible to invent
a VG, Virtual Gyro.
