Robotics have come a long ways. Newer models of robots are constantly being equipped with new equipments, so that they can perform more tasks. The latest model and apparently the smallest robot in the world is the Picobot.
As of now, the robot has not been assigned any specific functions. It has been equipped with sensors, camera, and GPS technology. I wonder what they are going to use this for. The robot has already taken the first step i.e. it has moved off the table! How exciting!
With the binoculars, camera, and wires mounted on what seems to be a coin, the robot does have an interesting appearance. The video shows the robot with a blinking light moving around and is actually pretty funny. According to the developer Poor robot, this is apparently the smallest robot in the world.
However, the technical specifications are not available yet. Until they release the specifications, I am going to stick to the other small robot Miniature Soccer Robot, which at least plays soccer. Unlike Picobot, soccer bot is about an inch high!
