Japanese Awaiting New Robot Toy
Japanese Robot Knows Words, Can House-Sit
TOKYO (AP) - A child-shaped humanoid robot that can recognize about 10,000 words and work as a house sitter will go on sale in Japan in September. The "Wakamaru" robot can recognize the faces of up to 10 people and talk to them. When linked to mobile phones, it can also work as a monitor to check...
Yeah, yeah, okay. This thing look "child-shaped" to you? Myself I can't say I've seen many kids built like that, but child-SIZED, yeah, the goofy looking thing IS child-sized. Now, toss a turban on it's head and depending how fast it can zig-zag, something like this'd be great for target practice. Cool if it had a recording that could shout things, like little-lulu-clarkbar, or whatever it is they scream when meeting a .44 slug up close and personal.
