Has Twitter Been Taken Over By Spam Marketers?

by Clint DeBoer

Change is hard. Typically, change is thought of as initially “bad” by most people who are not used to the rapid flow of technological advances that seem to move at the speed of light. So a year ago it was with a great open mind that I settled into a pursuit of exactly how to best use Twitter to my advantage. Social marketing is, after all, the new buzzword, and why not jump in with both feet, get a little dirty, and experience the power of social media?

Is the X-RHex Hexapedal Robot the Coolest Tool Ever?

by Clint DeBoer

We think so. X-RHex is the latest version of the highly mobile RHex platform, designed with greater strength, longer runtime, and more mobility than previous versions, with a modular payload architecture to support a variety of research needs. With new levels of mobility and durability, and the capability for rapid behavior development with a modular payload system, X-RHex is an effective research machine both in the laboratory and in outdoor field tests. Six powerful motors actuate compliant legs, allowing X-RHex to traverse a wide variety of terrains, including asphalt, grass, sand, mud, and rocks. By using a mil-spec rail mounted interface and standard electrical connections, X-RHex can support a wide variety of payloads, making it a mobile “laboratory on legs”. Now adding an extra sensor or testing a new behavioral algorithm is as easy as on a bench in the lab.
