Last week we took a look at DFKI’s AILA, a box sorting humanoid robot.  Now let’s take a deeper look at their projects with this nice 10 minute video detailing what DFKI’s work is all about.  The video contains footage of a number of their robots and computer animations (including Mr. SemProM – an earlier, more robotic design for AILA), with some of the stand outs being:

• Aramies, a space exploration quadruped (pictured above)
• CG simulation of an octopus-like underwater robot
• uAUV (the world’s smallest AUV)
• MEHEN, an underwater snake robot
• CESAR, a crater exploration robot
• Scorpion, an 8-legged space exploration robot
• Bin-Hur, a reflexive Kondo KHR-1

You could occupy yourself for hours just looking at all of their projects!
