Its a pretty sad day when a robot has better rythm than me on a dance floor - check this out...
Very interesting...I the clip is titled sony_06, but those look like mini versions of the Honda robot from the comercials.
Awesome!
That's some pretty cool animation.
Holy shit. That's amazing. If they could make a man-sized versions of those guys the world would be doomed.
Seriously, that's fantastic. Very impressive how life-like those things move.
Ha! Whitey!Quote:

I think I read somewhere their working on one that can run or jog. Sony is putting a lot of time and money into this stuff.
Link, please.Quote:

Nice. Thanks, Mech.

Hey that's my pic!
It's been said before, but that is really fucking cool. Are they sound activated or are they just timed to that music selection? Like once they hit a button it runs through those 3 routines (with those breaks timed into it so it looks like they start with the music).
I need to find the video of the Qrio walking the Abio. :DI'd imagine it was one complete set of pre-made moves for each Qrio. Chances are the dance is triggered by an outside source but it's possible that it's set off once it hears a certain note (at the very least they're sure to be working on it).Quote:
