WHOA! wait until you see the last video.

the movement is so fluid, so lifelike. the dexterity and full range of motion.
absolutely synchronized to the music (and other robots) as a computer program should. amazing.

Awesome videos, I'm quite impressed.

However, I think the girl's voice describing its functions (I almost said his functions) was just a little too surreal for my liking. She seemed too happy and about to burst.

I want one.

Thank you!

It looks a bit silly running. I could also kick the ass of several of them at once, I might add.

holy shiet...:Q


i can't wait 10 years down the road....What will they think of then? :Q

 

[thomsbrain]

it's really small, did you see the size compared to the hand that knocked it over? ASIMO would crush him with his mighty foot!

really cool though. honda's gonna have to step it up now.

As we keep pouring our intelligence into machines, it seems that we become more like machines...interesting.

Hmm...

 

[RayH]

So how long before they have them doing flips and dodging bullets?
Maybe they'll be doing Toy Story 10 with real toys instead of cg.

 

[Looney]

The way it runs is hilarious. But it's awesome to see the technology is so advance. It was only a few years ago when Honda displayed it's human size model, and it was slow and clunky. Amazing to see how fast and far it's advanced.

 

[0roo0roo]

omg those videos are trippy

 

[Gulzakar]

yeah, go AI...ummm, anyone else think this is really creepy?

 

[Ornery]

I'm really impressed. So, how much?

Humans playing God when they don't understand their own God isn't good.

It's still a prototype, so i doubt you can buy it. Its still really cool though. The pics in the flash intro thing made it look bigger than it was.

Nah, you guys just suck because you can't find the videos on the official site from the first link.

But the subsequent videos were much cooler, thanks ndee. :beer:
