I know it is not a fancy or automated solution. But is should provide a cheap solution to most of the functions that the poster wants.

Submission + - NASA's zero-gravity robotic-arm quid pro quo (canadianmanufacturing.com)
AndreV writes: "We've entered into an extraterrestrial quid pro quo with our Northern neighbors: After celebrating 25 years of the Canadarm's first venture into space, NASA has reached out (so to speak) to the Canadian Space Agency and begun research and development on a new generation of robotic arms, which would ultimately be used for the U.S. agency's Orion Crew Exploration Vehicle that will provide transportation for Moon missions and jaunts to the international space station. In exchange, Canada will trade the robotic-limb technology's use on Orion and other future U.S-manned spacecraft for flight time for Canadian astronauts. And seeing solid results shouldn't be far off—the engineering company designing the bionic branch, responsible for the previous Canadarms, has already begun investigating the effects of zero gravity on their components. (Another forward-looking project being bartered for astronaut time? A Moon and Mars rover.) Fair trade?"

Now imagine the same situation, only with an asexual third generation humanoid robot with 100kg arms. Such was the torture subjected upon Japanese researchers recently when their most advanced robot, capable of simulating human emotions, ditched its puppy love programming and switched over into stalker mode. Eventually the researchers had to decommission the robot, with a hope of bringing it back to life again!"

After the last very successful 5 years with about 1.7 million data records and more than 20000 active users, we would like to say "thank you" to everyone who helped the project grow to what it is right now.
+++ We are very sad to say it, but we decided to close down the Uptime-Project on the 1st of March 2007. +++
Surely this wasn't an easy de
