Meet the R700 Vector Robotic Arm: a programmable aluminum robotic arm with 6 degrees of freedom and an ATmega64 microprocessor. You can control the robot via a computer or keyboard. The RACS software lets you record and play back the movements of the robot. This robotic arm has an expandable design. Wireless control is available optionally.
Meet the Typhoon H 4K Hexacopter: an aerial vehicle that lets you capture beautiful footage in the air. It comes with a CGO3+ 4K-resolution camera and the ST16 Personal Ground Station, which has a 7″ Android touchscreen display. The drone comes with retractable landing gear and collision avoidance.
Robots are getting good at many things. In the future, they may be able to handle weapons like a pro. Take this sword-fighting robot. It recognizes the positions of a human player the sword to react. The moment it detects the human is moving, the robot predicts possible trajectories of the sword of the human player by a least-squares method.
Meet the Codeybot: a cute robot developed to teach your children a thing or two about programming. This fully customizable robot can be programmed to dance, play music, and even shoot lasers (with an add-on).
Meet the FlyPro XEagle drone: a smart drone that you can control with a smartwatch or your voice. It offers autonomous flight modes, obstacle avoidance, and image stabilization. It comes with a 4K video camera for livestreaming.
In the past few months, we have covered a bunch of interesting robotics projects by NamikiLaboratory. This video shows robots throwing and grasping objects with accuracy. As you can see, the robot throws an object in the air and calculates the proper position to recapture it. The below video shows the whole sequence:

Meet Photon: an educational robot designed to make kids familiar with technology and programming. These cute robots grow with their owners. They are compatible with iOS, Android, and Windows devices. The Photon Robot relies on gamification to keep your children engaged.
There are plenty of interesting Arduino robot arms on the market. Learning how to control them with a software like Arm Link does not have to be a hassle. RobotGeek has posted a guide that shows you how to control arduino-compatible robot arms with the InterbotiX Arm Link.
So you love dogs but don’t want to adopt a real one? You may want to give this robot dog a look. The Genibo SD Robot Dog is a cute toy with a fun personality. It does not like its sides touched and needs your attention to stay awake. It comes with a 10-channel touch sensor, vision and voice recognition, and 2600 mAh battery.
Meet Weldguide IV : a thru-arc sensor for robotic welding systems that guides robots to the correct path and yields faster, more accurate results. Weldguide IV is easy to program and can track difficult welding joint variations. In fact, it offers 6 tracking modes.
