HRP-4C dances and sings her way into the Uncanny Valley
It is actually tapping its feet on the floor. I didn't know until now that the robots the companies are developed are advanced up to the stage of such move-ability.
Ok, it's not break dancing, its not doing mega high jumps across a 50 foot wide river. But its the little steps that count. Just around 10 years ago, Honda developing what people back then thought extremely hard to do. Honda presents their ASIMO robot.
Honda now develop their ASIMO robot to move actually quite fluent.
Interactive Presentation of the ASIMO
The HRP-4C robot compared with ASIMO robot, is slightly different. It looks less bulky, slim and an uncanny human face. The hands are a bit weird, they're like man hands...
Either way I say another 5 more years and a bit more funding future robots are going to be part of service industry.
