Amazing dancing robots from Sony August 20, 2006

Posted by Al in : clever,robots,video , trackback

This is a wonderful video of Sony’s latest robots dancing, and dancing quite well I might add. What this is really is a demonstration of how far bipedal robots have come in just the last 2 years, when you had huge clunking robots which struggled to take tiny little steps. Now these pint sized robots are maintaining their balance even while their arms, heads and torsos are moving around, so even though they are still not making huge steps it’s still a big leap forward in bipedal technology. I do hope that the PS3 and Blu-Ray doesn’t bankrupt Sony as they are still probably one of the best innovators around.
