Summary
Elliot Williams hosts a podcast covering some of the most interesting stories from the engineering and technology space from the previous week, including new innovations, projects and ideas.
This week’s episode included discussions about a competition in China, which saw a number of bipedal robots taking part in a half-marathon, and although the technology is not quite there for the machines to become our overlords, the contest is helping to drive innovation and development in the robotic sector.
Some of the highlights covered included new techniques for 3D printing, a high-quality record cutting lathe project, reduced pricing on LIDAR sensors, and developments in the Raspberry Pi project.
Other articles covered included a reality check for lovers of physical media, and a history of x-ray detection methods.
