ÐÔÊӽ紫ý

Robots build cars, vacuum floors and complete sophisticated, minimally invasive medical procedures. But there’s still one thing they can’t do, a scientific head-scratcher that continues to distinguish machines from human beings: While a robot might outsmart a single human, it cannot defeat two.

Nevada leads the nation in drone technology, as now there is more proof that the future of robotics is right here at ÐÔÊӽ紫ý.

When you ask ÐÔÊӽ紫ý robotics professor Paul Oh how long his laboratory took to create, he can’t help but laugh.

ÐÔÊӽ紫ý professor Paul Oh is pleased as they are finally opening the doors on a newly built lab for its drone and robotics programs featuring their Metal Rebel competition entry and many others.

The new ÐÔÊӽ紫ý Drones and Autonomous Systems Lab is in the back of a 99 Cents store building across the street from the Clark County Library on Flamingo.

We’re looking at the heavy-duty digits of a Hubo humanoid robot hanging in his ÐÔÊӽ紫ý engineering lab, and Paul Oh is trying to help me understand why they’re not as elegant as mine. Yet.

The little girl squirmed in her mother’s arms inside a lab at the ÐÔÊӽ紫ý, her American flag-themed dress contrasting with the hammers, rulers and other engineering equipment that surrounded her.

That ÐÔÊӽ紫ý students were selected to compete in the U.S. Department of Energy Solar Decathlon against teams from elite private institutions such as Stanford University, the University of Southern California and the California Institute of Technology was an accomplishment by itself.

Then ÐÔÊӽ紫ý went and beat them all.

Robots on the open road. That could be the future for Nevada, which opened its roadways to driverless cars in 2011. Nevada also recently hosted the Consumer Electronic Show, where Toyota and Audi unvieled self-driving technology. So how far are we from the science-fiction fantasy of driverless cars? And how will it change how we drive in the future?
