Robotics
Japanese researchers advance robotics
Japanese researchers appear to be increasing robot technology at a rapid clip. Honda's cute, four-foot-tall ASIMO robot is designed to be non-threatening and people-friendly. Honda has now upgraded the machine so that it can recognize faces and call out people's names. Honda will rent out this machine, and will undoubtedly improve it further.  => http://www.geek.com/news/geeknews/20...1212017729.htm Related: Honda Shows Off Upgraded Walking Robot

Rent out? To be cannon fodder? Or maybe advertising?
I think my grand-mother would have a fit if something like that answered the door.

From the other pictures i've seen, i thought this thing was huge.
OT: Does anyone know if it's true whether Will Smith will star in the motion picture of the Asimov-novell "I, Robot"? |
