"Robot negotiates nearly every mine and hazard"
Article 2"Invention: Lego robot for automated DNA assembly" describes a young student about the age of our robotic students who programmed an NXT robot to " transfer as little as five microliters (slightly larger than the tip of a ballpoint pen), the amount demanded by such projects as DNA assembly. The system costs just $750, making it affordable to small universities and start-up companies."
