Combat Robot Video From RoboGames 2007

by Scott Beale on June 16, 2007 · 4 comments

Last night at RoboGames 2007 I finally had a chance to test out my new Canon PowerShot TX1, a really cool, tiny HD video camera. Here’s a video of one of the combat robot competitions that I shot through the Lexan walls of the arena.

With this video, I decided to try out Vimeo, a super slick video sharing service which is part of Connected Ventures based out of New York (the same guys behind Busted Tees and CollegeHumor).

RoboGames runs all through the weekend. If you are in San Francisco, I highly recommend checking it out.

UPDATE: Here is more RoboGames 2007 video from Davis Freeberg and Great White Snark.

Hey, Scott… I’ve got footage of today’s RoboGames robot combat bouts on my blog. My first time trying Vimeo… thanks for pointing me to it, the vid quality is notably better than YouTube’s.

Fantastic photos in your set, as always. One day, oh one day, I’ll learn how to use a camera properly…
