Honda keeps upping the bar on robotics. Here is a video of Asimo actually running.

Very cool, but Asimo will not be winning the 100m dash any time soon. :wink:

I thought I was going to see a "home movie" of Larry and Sissy,,,, :wink:

No one else finds this disturbing? :biggrin:

thats pretty freaky. they should give him wheels like the maid from the jetsons

 

[Ponyboy]

That's awesome. Though it does look like the robot is creeping away after stealing a candy bar.

Is ASIMO governed by the "Three Laws?" :wink:

I saw the Asimo video yesterday, then rented iRobot tonight. A little bit surreal.

Honda gave ASIMO a new voice program recently too. Amazing...

That thing is awesome! It is amazing at how life like it looks at times, there is one spot where it looks like he is sneeking up on someone.

I want one of these things at home!
