Robots and Dinosaurs

A few years back I was hiking in the New Mexico desert with some friends. I came across this petroglyph of what looked like the Robauto logo. I loved thinking about some ancient version of myself etching out some googley eyes on a cave wall. (Actually, what is this a sketch of?).

An early Robauto fan?

Fast forward to 2022.

Japanese robotics experts have built some very lifeline T-Rex dinosaurs. Robotics purists would argue this is animatronics, not robotics but either way, it’s an impressive show of engineering.

We’ve come along way since the dawn of man. Instead of etching robots on cave walls we’re posting them on Reddit.
