DaVinci's Robot ?

News in Science - Da Vinci sketched an early car - 26/04/2004: "The model, on display at Italy's Institute and Museum of the History of Science in Florence, has proved what has been doubted for centuries: the machine actually moves.

It is the world's first self-propelled vehicle. It was designed to operate as a robot and could travel for about 40 metres,' said Professor Paolo Galluzzi, director of the museum." - ABC Science

What is interesting here is the man's work sought to improve on man's capabilites. A combinations of Art and Science... where are the two now ?

That this design actually works is quite amazing. I am still having trouble getting my head around just how ! - zzb
