Sony's bots in action!

While this isn't really home automation/theater/security related, I can only hope that someday we will all have one of these

Check out some of these cool video clips, the latest one is the QRIO conducting the Tokyo Philharmonic Orchestra at a concert held on March 13th.

All i can say is WOW! Those robots can dance better than me. Not that that says much but wow. I was waiting for one of them to do a back flip. If they can move like that then we could program them to walk to the store for us and pick up some eggs then bring them back and make french toast for us then have it delivered to us in bed all before we even wake up!

They are a little small to reach the top shelf at the store but im sure they could build them bigger.

WOW!
