Just yesterday Honda North America has demonstrated a truly amazing robot that not only can pour liquid, but can also take the stairs up and down to open the bottle, serve drinks, and if necessary, politely shake hands.
«Hello New York! Thank you for coming today! »- The first word of the miracle of the robot on the opening in the center of Manhattan.
Resembling a miniature astronaut, Asimo is dressed in a white suit and helmet. The total height is about 130 cm and a weight of about 50 kg.
ASIMO (abbr. Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility i>) - was designed to help people with disabilities. The first model was introduced in 2000 after 14 years of research, during which scientists studied human movement in an attempt to repeat them.
The latest demonstration shows the flexibility and balance of the robot - Asimo can now jump and also knows sign language and is able to move at a speed of 9 km / h.
Researchers believe that one day Asimo can help elderly people who need constant care, as well as people with disabilities.
Honda has been developing since 1986 androids. For the year 2009 the world has 100 copies Asimo. The cost of producing one instance does not exceed $ 1 million, and some robots can be rented for $ 166 000. Most interestingly, Honda did not sell their robots, and rents them only for rent.
Every year Asimo gets new features, which helps him to become more perfect. Here's a small list:
