Needless to say, it's exciting to read about the progress of Dean's
Argonaut. I was intrigued by his mention of an evil Argonaut twin and
followed up with some underground journalistic detectivism. Who would
have guessed at the nest I discovered of alternate robots in the
Argonaut umbrella project. It's amazing what hobbyists are doing these
days!
Arg!-go-not is his only robot that isn't going anywhere very fast.
ArgueNot is his AI personal assistant.
Argonad is his top-secret artificial life project.
His drawing board offers a hint of a faster version next year named
EscargoNaut or possibly EscargoNot (it was hard to read through the
window shade).
The ArgoKnot is being developed for autonomous sailing.
Argonite sees in the dark and is made of a material from another planet.
Well, needless to say, he's a busy guy. And that's without mentioning
ArgoGnat and Argonut.
But no evil twin or anything evil at all actually. So much for
journalistic instinct, but at least we know what he's up to!
