England's new robot speaker at the Model Engineering show
London reports Britain's latest robot amazes crowds by walking across Trafalgar Square and delivering a speech from a chair at Horticulture Hall. Created by Captain W H Richards and A N Reffel, it answers time, obeys voice commands, and shuns the command to “shut up.” It can drill wood or metal with two operators watching. The device, largely metal, resembles a knight in armor and runs on a twelve-volt motor with coils and miles of wire.
