Famous robots



At The Robot Hall of Fame you are able to nominate the robot of your flav. The site's mission is to honor the landmarks of robot-science and is put up of the The School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University, Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. They both put the industrial- and the sci-firobots on the scene. And on the annual meeting 2003 they honored four robots: Mars Pathfinder Sojourner Rover, Unimate, R2-D2, and HAL 9000.

The jury is a really cool bunch of people from both the scientific as well as the sci-fiworld. Arthur C. Clarke, well-known sci-fi author and Sherry Turkle, who is professor at MIT and author of the book "living.online".
