Robots

Every year the things that robots can do continues to amaze us. The Hi Fives, the Grand Valley's only FIRST Robotics team, has been working hard to get their next competition robot ready and you are invited to see the unveiling.

Technology today is advancing at an incredible rate, as evidenced by the latest version of Atlas the humanoid robot, which is completely amazing, but extremely creepy.

Covers of the Stan Bush anthem 'The Touch' -- known to geeks from its use in 1986's 'Transformers: The Movie' -- are nothing new. But covers of 'The Touch' performed by an all-Transformer band? Now that's something we don't see every day.

These incredible machines often complete tasks that humans can only hope to achieve. One company is putting robotic technology to its best use yet: providing automated massages through the use of a tiny car that motors across your body.
