Take Me To Your Metro: Microsoft Releases Robotics Developer Studio 4 Beta

I popped into the Microsoft tent at Maker Faire yesterday and spied the new Robotics Developer Studio 4, a beta product that allows programmers to control robotic platforms from within Windows. Microsoft is focusing on the software for these robots and will depend on outside vendors to produce hobbyist and production systems for those who want to give things a try. The program also features a simulator that allows you to send your robot out into the virtual world in order to see how it will react in certain situations. A company called Parallax will sell the robot kits in October, namely their clever little $999 robot named Eddie. Eddie requires a laptop and Kinect unit to run correctly. The Kinect gives Eddie stereo vision and voice sensing capabilities while the laptop runs his brain.
