Yeah, you know it. Robots are pretty cool.
The other day I saw the movie I, Robot and I really enjoyed it. I just looked at the rottentomatoes.com ratings for I, Robot and I was surprised that it got such low ratings. I also just saw War of the Worlds and I was surprised that it got higher ratings than I, Robot. I enjoyed I, Robot more than War of the Worlds. It kept me more interested in the story and things made more sense. Also, I didn't like how War of the Worlds ended; there were some things that weren't explained and it seemed like there wasn't much of a resolution.
Anyway, back to the robots. Here's a cool video about a Japaneese robot called Keepon. It was made to study social development by interacting with children. It has two cameras for eyes and a microphone in its nose. And, it can be programmed to do some interesting things like dancing to rythms. Enjoy this video:
Heres another video about robots, but this time with fictional robots ... robot insurance, specifically. I always get a good laugh out of this video:
