I recently received an email from Søren Lund at the LEGO Group pointing to a pair of LEGO-produced “Candid Camera”-style video clips they put together showing a Mindstorms NXT robot startling some people in an innocuous retail setting.
One clip shows an NXT shattering the glass of a mall display, while the other features a robot grabbing at the hands of unsuspecting shoppers as they attempt to poke at the truculent bot.
Unleashing robotic mayhem on the unsuspecting sounds like an intriguing premise for other hijinks, ranging from spraying interloping pets with water (to keep them out of your garden) or startling the mother-in-law at the next family get together. Add some suggestions of your own by clicking on the “comments” link below this post.
