Building Robots 3
Robots are mechanical device which performs automated tasks, either according to direct human supervision, a pre-defined program or, a set of general guidelines, using artificial intelligence techniques. These tasks either replace or enhance human work, such as in manufacturing, construction or manipulation of heavy or hazardous materials. [Wikipedia] Photo: Honda

Scooters from 1950 35
8 years of work: restoring old scooters from the 50's. I've done everything from A to Z: among other: mechanics, painting, electricity...At the culminant point of this hobby, I was having in my garage:
- 4 Solex (model 3800 - 5000 - 2200)
- 2 Vespa V55 125 ccm
- 1 Vespa 50ccm
- 1 Vespa GT 1962 125ccm
- 1 Terrot Skipper 49ccm
- 1 Terrot 125ccm
- 1 Manurhin SM75 75ccm
- 1 Bernardet E51 125ccm
- 2 Lambretta Ld57 125ccm
Manurhin SM75 12
Au milieu des années 50, la Manurhin (Manufacture de Machines du Haut-Rhin) est surtout connue par ses productions d'armes, munitions, machines-outils et appareils de contrôle. Programme assez vaste pour que semble étrange l'intérêt porté par cette entreprise à un domaine nouveau : la production de scooters. Bernardet E51 6
Moteur Bernardet, deux temps, 125 cm34 vitesses au pied gauche
Puissance 6 CV à 4000 tr/mn
Suspension avant à roue tirée et anneaux Neiman
Suspension arrière par anneaux Neiman
Freins à tambour (110 mm)
Bernardet Cabri 50ccm 1
Le Cabri, modèle de scooter individuel véritablement révolutionnaire, sort en juillet 1954. C'est un cyclo-scooter à petites roues chaussées en 3 x 8", ne pesant que 34 kg. Un gros tube de 45 mm de diamètre sert d'ossature ; y sont fixés le tablier en tôle et la plate-forme repose-pieds en aluminium.
Velosolex 2
Velosolex is a French manufacturer of mopeds, based in Paris, France. Founded at the turn of the last century, Velosolex manufactured centrifugal radiators, carburetors, and micrometers, before branching into mopeds and bicycles. Owned successively by Renault, Motobécane, and MBK, Velosolex sold more than 7 million mopeds before ceasing production in 1988. The name has been revived under the direction of the founder's son, and Velosolex is once again producing mopeds. [WikiPedia] Vespa 9
Vespa 1954 The Vespa is a line of motor scooters that was first manufactured in Genoa, Italy in 1946 by Piaggio & Co, S.p.A. Piaggio continues to manufacture the Vespa today, although the Vespa was a much more prevalent vehicle in the 1950s and 60s when it became the adopted vehicle of choice for the UK youth-culture known as Mods, and later Skinheads. The classic Vespas had unibody chassis pressed from sheets of steel, with bodywork covering the legs for protection from rain and mud. [WikiPedia]
ATV/Quad 28
An all-terrain vehicle (ATV), also known as a quad, quad bike, three wheeler, or four wheeler, is defined by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) as a vehicle that travels on low pressure tires, with a seat that is straddled by the operator, along with handlebars for steering control. As the name implies, it is designed to handle a wider variety of terrain than most other vehicles. Although it is a street-legal vehicle in some countries, it is not street legal within most states and provinces of Australia, the United States, Canada, or the United Kingdom. In the UK, a recent variant class of ATV is now road-legal, but there are few models available in this class. Bombardier DS 650 Baja X 17
Bombardier Recreational Products Inc. (BRP) launches its 2007 all-terrain vehicle (ATV) line-up and re-brands its ATV products to Can Am.

le Roadster pousse au crime OUI elle a zero km au compteur sur les photos! je suis allé la chercher en camion chez le concessionnaire...(ne rigoler pas) je ne voulait pas monter sur l'autoroute avec un tel engin la premiere fois (5 ans sans moto juste des scooters). Il faut dire que sa puissance me terrifiait et cela l'a été pendant 2 jours à 15km/h à l'heure dans mon village. Mais pour reprendre l'expression d'un client dans la concession alors que j'admirait une CBR 1100, "c'est jamais assez puissant" Effectivement il n'avait pas tort, on s'habitue a tout... et on en veut toujours plus.

Scherenschnitte, as its name implies, is a popular folk art form in German-speaking countries, although the craft had its origins in China and spread to many countries in Asia and Europe. Paper snowflakes cut from folded paper are the simple forms that most people know. However, true scherenschnitte becomes much more complex, with elaborate scenes resembling paper lace consisting of large branching trees, animals, and human figures. Variations such as paper cutouts applied to eggs and silhouettes. Lampe Berger 5

SNK Neo Geo 66
SNK Neo Geo AES 4
The Advanced Entertainment System (AES), originally known just as the Neo Geo, is the first video game console in the family. The hardware features comparatively colorful 2D graphics. The system was marketed as 24-bit, though it is technically a 16 bit system accompanied by an 8-bit Zilog Z80 as coprocessor. The coprocessor is generally used for sound processing.
Initially, the home system was only available for rent to commercial establishments, such as hotel chains, bars and restaurants, and other venues. When customer response indicated that some gamers were willing to buy a US$650 console, SNK expanded sales and marketing into the home console market. The Neo Geo console was officially launched on 31 January 1990 in Osaka, Japan. The AES is identical to its arcade counterpart, the MVS, so arcade games released for the home market are nearly identical conversions.
SNK Neo Geo MVS 1
SNK's first two products using the Neo Geo name are an arcade system called the Neo Geo Multi Video System (MVS) and a companion console called the Advanced Entertainment System (AES), both released in 1990. The MVS offers arcade operators the ability to put up to six different arcade games into a single cabinet, a key economic consideration for operators with limited floorspace. It comes in many different cabinets but basically consists of an add on board that can be linked to a standard JAMMA system.
SNK Neo Geo Pocket 3
SNK Neo Geo CD 2
The Neo Geo CD, released in 1994, was initially an upgrade from the original AES. This console uses CDs instead of ROM cartridges like the AES. The unit's (approximately) 1X CD-ROM drive was slow, making loading times very long with the system loading up to 56 Mbits of data between loads. Neo Geo CD game prices were low at US$50, in contrast to Neo Geo AES game cartridges which cost as much as US$300. The system could also play Audio CDs. All three versions of the system have no region-lock.
The Neo Geo CD was bundled with a control pad instead of a joystick like the AES. However, the original AES joystick can be used with all 3 Neo Geo CD models, instead of the included control pads.

Gensmantel Heaven 1
1996 - the first Heaven Heli is born. Gensmantel originally co-developed the ECO 8 for Icarus. Shortly afterwards around 1996, the first Gensmantel RC electric helicopter was available on the market, the Heaven. At this time there was not a lot of helicopters on the market, and the Heaven is similar to the "legendary" ECO 8 in some points. The "wobbly" chassis of the ECO 8 of Icarus, was at that time repeatedly criticized, but the Gensmantel "Heaven" was not.
