The 914 PC-Bot




A robot designed for teachers, researchers, engineers and legacy system developers who need to front real-world applications and robotics projects with a digital face.

Designed to fit digital life, bringing data and processing to the point of human contact.

It's a host computer, it's a web server, it has GigaHertz or processing power, Gigabytes of Ram and 100's of Gigabyes of hard drive space...have fun!

 


About PC-Bots
Traditional mobile robots tend to fall into two camps - small, inexpensive platforms that require a host computer in order to program them - or - they are expensive and proprietary. These mobile robotics platforms are typified as automated toys running simple download programs performing repetitive and/or single applications to proprietary units performing relatively complex programs or jobs.
 

While all these units fit the scientific definition of a robot, they fall short of fitting the average person's mental picture of what a robot should be.

The 914 PC-BOT, by comparison, is a Personal Computer complete with inputs for keyboard, monitor and mouse. It is also visually stunning unit designed to evoke a natural attraction and engineered to meet the average person's idea of what a robot should look like. Not only that, the 914 PC-BOT is presented to the market as a richly featured researchers, advanced-technology teachers or system developers, robot engineered out of industry standard hardware and industry standard software


Robot joins UT recruiting team


The 914 PC-BOT is the first general service robot designed for digital life in the home, at work, at school and at play.

A robot framework that is familiar, supportable, maintainable and extensible - bringing data and process to the point of human contact.



Engineered almost entirely out of industry standard PC hardware and mainstream operating system software.

A visually stunning machine designed to evoke an emotional response and engineered to meet the average person’s idea of what a robot should look like.

For teachers, researchers, engineers or legacy systems developers who need to front real-world applications and robotics projects with a digital face.
