  • By Your Command

    Just a few weeks back I was in Seattle for Supercomputing 11 and I got to see the Battlestar Galactica display at the EMP museum. There were a lot of cool things there, Saul’s eye patch, an electronically administered ethics test (would you make the same choices as the BG gang?). To fond memories of a great show (if we don’t think too hard about the last few seasons). So say we all.

    IDG News Service has produced a video review of the year’s robot news, covering home, business, sports, and space uses.
