MURphy loves me...I LOve Robhatah







The second day at IIT early in the morning , I was awakened by a roar of machines from outside and when I rushed to see what was happening then I found some Army vehicles making their way into the grounds ,later I was informed that INDIAN ARMY,DRDO LABS are together conducting a Missile and state of art weapon exibition of Tankers, and recently devoloped Air- Air , Air-Land and laser operated missiles, then adrenaline was pumped in my nerves and I was out to watch them within 5 minutes,they were awsome and I thought why I was not in the Army
(should have tried rite??) I was awestuck by the performance of soldiers.
Then, comes our event .It was actually scheduled at 9 am ,so we were waiting for our team mates to come but God !!the clock was just ticking and no sign of them. Suddenly it was 2 pm and still no signs of these people, we rushed to the event spot and were eagerly waiting for them finally they arrived at around 5:30 pm and the event was to end at 6pm ,we reqested the judges as we had a genuine reason the car tyre got punctured 3 times?? you know what i mean 3 times!!!!
finally they were like very impressed by the model and every one was posing for pics with our model , but they said they couldn't help as we were late , so then I thought "MURPHY LOVES ME"
we were offered loadz of sympathy, and appreciation but I couldn't understand why they couldn't extend the event for just 10 minutes?ours was the only proper engineered design amonst all, all the others were just wobbling and it was merely like a science fair, rather than a techfest of a prestigious institution ,then we were given some letter of appreciation to pacify but we rejected them( later they were given at hospitality desks) then we attended the rocking show
from NUS singapore ROBHATAH robots which dance, play and communicate
It was the most amazing show ,Robots were performing bycycle kicks, and dancing to the tune of Dhoom machale audience were chanting ONCE MORE ..ONCE MORE...while the bots were busy dancing balancing on one leg with perfect synchronysm if you are interested in these amazing humanoid bots then visit http://www.revobot.com/ .
