Watch the videos at Sony's site. It's pretty awesome.

Wierd. Kinda reminds me of once (long ago) when I was on helpdesk. A woman told me (quite sternly) that if I ever doubted if there were a god why on earth would he have given us the ability to create such marvels. I kind of laughed it off at the time.

Fast forward a few years and that statement keeps on coming back to mind when I see stuff like this. Guess what she said really resonated. Like I said wierd

That poor robot. Imagine being forced to interact with abandoned toddlers and the grown-ups who really think this day care is any kind of care at all. Will the robot learn to pity the children more than it will loathe the parents?

To succeed in kindergarten the robot will first have to develop its self-esteem and then learn how to do the "Feelings Dance."
