Advanced robotics?
« on: August 17, 2007, 08:50:37 AM »

Check this out:

http://beatbots.org/

Watch the video!  It's a music video to Spoon's 'Don't you eva.'  The Keepon is a robot that dances to beats.  It was actually developed to study social interaction with children.  The eyes are actually cameras and the nose is a microphone.  In the video it seems to be able to react to sudden noises and recognize people/faces and actually 'look' at them.  Seems pretty advanced to me...damn I want one!  They're not selling it though...sux
