Asimov’s world beckons…

New Scientist has an interesting article about a new robot with a knack for finding its feet.

While there have previously been some impressive demonstration videos of robots from Toyota, Honda and Sony, this is the first robot I’ve seen that actually mimicked human like movement patterns.

You can download the 13 MB demo video here; it’s rather unsettling to watch.

I just hope they have a good team working on the software…
