This subreddit is devoted to sharing gifs and videos of robots that are useless or just don't do their job quite right.

RULES

1) While we specialize in Shitty robots, we now also allow the following types of robots:

  • Useless Robots
  • Funny Robots

1.1) Failing to flair your post under the appropriate category could result in its removal.

2) Certain bots are not allowed, this is either because they don't fit the sub or they've been posted too many times:

Please report any posts that feature these robots.

*If either of the above rules are broken, the post will be removed. Repeat offenders will be banned.

3) At the moment we only allow links from following web sites:

  • Imgur.com
  • Youtube.com
  • Gfycat.com
  • Tumblr.com
  • Vimeo.com
  • Reddit.com

If your post does not link to one of these sites and rehosting is not an option, please message the moderators with a link to your post.

4) Please avoid any reposts, as reposts will be removed.

  • Furthermore, if you repost frequently, you could be banned.

5) Simone Giertz is our queen. Meta posts about her are usually allowable.

I made a video at a Tokyo robot cafe! We eat surprisingly good food served by robots in a cafe that has to be seen to be believed before enjoying another super cool experience at TeamLabPlanets. Tokyo really is the city of the future! Enjoy 🇯🇵

I made a machine that keeps you depressed

So I basically made a machine where I attached a gun to a couple of servos and with python opencv the gun tracked my face and shot you with a bb if you smile, would love if you watched it and maybe gave me some feedback?

Short Haul Flight Sound Environment Simulator (SHFSES) 🎧

We are still fine tuning the balance between bass, rumble, rattle, and ding, but we feel that with further time and funding we could cross the 100dB threshold and provide the most immersive small plane experience the world has ever seen.
