Hi everyone, ASIMO is one of my favourite robot, I am a huge fans of this masterpiece. Finally, I decided to make a dedicated fan site for collecting information of ASIMO and share to all the ASIMO lovers, and here we go: http://loveasimo.org/. Hope you will visit it sometimes and leave comments there:) I am excited to see the next generation of ASIMO, I believe the "Power of Dreams"!
We are familiar with the Honda "ASIMO" robot, one of the most advanced robot nowadays. I have visited the Honda welcome plaza and see the real ASIMO running, it is awesome. If you missed my post on ASIMO, do check it out here.
Toyota is not lagging behind in the robotic research, the new robot prototype showing a impressive 2 leg balancing and also it can run @ 7km/hour which is a little bit faster than the Honda ASIMO. Please check out the video below.
The robotic research is a hot topic in Japan, even the hobby RC humanoid robot is also available to the public, e.g. Robo-one. May be after 10-20 years, a humanoid robot is ready to serve you, and it is a Japanese branded robot of course:)
OK, I admit that I am very addicted to this dream work by HONDA. But the new ASIMO (Baby version) is really amazing, we are not talking about walking and running anymore. It is learning! ASIMO can now identify 100+ objects, and also can learn and judge the similarity of different objects. That's truly awesome. Check it out:
Honda is one of the most admired company in the world, the company slogan is "The Power of Dreams" inspired by Honda's founder: Soichiro Honda. One of the most noticeable research by Honda is the robot: ASIMO (Advanced Step Innovative Mobility), it is nearly a public icon of the company. I went to tokyo last week, and visited the Honda Welcome Plaza which featuring ASIMO demo. I am very happy to see this masterpiece of engineering. Walking like a human, can run, talk, dance, even movement of arm is prefect. It is definely cool.
