In Japan, they have robots doing dishes and tai-chi, but watch this one geek try his best to get a response from an Einstein robot, but fail to get more than just a vacant look.
Trend Hunter's huge collection of articles shows dozens of incredibly advanced robots, we even have our own category for them, so something as unresponsive as this 'bot is quite surprising for us to see.
Supposedly, the designers at Hanson Labs have designed a bot that will follow with eyes, smile and frown when appropriate using 32 motors.
This is the fourth such bot. Perhaps Einstein was just thinking “Who is this Einstein making faces at me?”
