Maybe they’ll take selfies before they go to work?
 
Indeed, robots may someday become as commonplace as computers in our daily lives. The robot in this video is DARwIn-OP, which stands for Dynamic Anthropomorphic Robot with Intelligence–Open Platform. DARwIn visited NSF headquarters from Virginia Tech, where researchers use it to advance robotics research and education.
 
You may recognize DARwIn-OP from the RoboCup, a robotics competition intended to challenge roboticists to create humanoid robots capable of playing soccer, an activity that requires complex physical and computational abilities.
 
Investments in cutting-edge robotics research from the National Science Foundation have already led to robots that benefit society by aiding in industry, manufacturing, education, the home and beyond. Today’s innovations have the potential to transform our lives in unexpected ways.
 
Celebrate innovation – or just your love of robots – by sharing your own #robotselfie and tag @NSF.\n
