| Name of Model: Difference Engine | | Created by: Andrew Carol | | Found at: http://acarol.woz.org/ | Details:
 This is probably cheating - is it really robotic if there are no sensors involved? This is a gem that made headlines a few years ago and still gets discussed online quite a bit. I am always fascinated by mechanical computing trickery, because they offer a lot of possibilities for expanding the capability of the handful of motors most of us can afford. There is an extensive write-up for this model available at the link above, and that should fill you in on what a difference engine is if you are not familiar with the concept. | | This is Monday's model of the day |
