Too cute for words

Robots are getting more human. Humans are getting more robotic. So what else is new? Try Ropid, which is a contraction/invention using RObot and raPID, which describes the motions this little 14" wonder can perform. Watch these YouTube videos, or go to the page where there is more information.




This second video shows the abilities one by one. Check the natural motions at about 1:06 in. One of the things that works really well is the ability to rotate its upper torso. Getting up from a sitting position is pretty remarkable.



So, where do I buy one?

When you find out where to buy one I hope you tell all of us too.
