Honda Asimo : Asimo is back !

Asimo is back !

After Toyota's impressive demonstration, Honda had to strike back, and invited "a chosen few" (which turned into a hundred people as usual) to a new press conference to unveil the latest version of their "Robot King": Asimo.

No need to hide it any longer: the meeting was a letdown, because the only enhancements that were brought to Asimo were better objects detection (it would basically run into things before), and a longer lasting battery... hmm... I guess the people at Toyota must be laughing quite hard at the moment... Of course I took some photos and one video, there you go!

Yeah, looking to a photo (above) I would assume yes. To him do that isn't hard at all (low battery sensor), what is hard is how he can get until there by walking (avoiding objects, etc). I wonder when those robots will start to get cheap enough to starting to buy for masses.
