Wowwee Rovio
If you haven’t seen these guys already you should check out WowWee’s latest robotics offerings. The Rovio uses Evolution Robotics’s Northstar indoor navigation system to keep track of where it is and can be programmed to autonomously navigate to various waypoints within a building in a similar way to GPS waypoints.
The BladeStar is not actually a robot (it is controlled by a human via a remote) but looks awesome and highly maneuverable. Judging by the flying in the video someone may want to try to build a pilot assist system for it to prevent random decapitation of passers-by!
