Re: Robot letdown
Frankly speaking at least my mother and many household women in China are not interested in cleaning robots. The Ecovacs' floor/window cleaning robots are available in many big shopping malls in Beijing but the sales figure is not so good. The gaming one looks more promising. I do like the idea of Rapiro - an expansible advanced robotic toy. Furthermore, the look is also attractive - more like my beloved LEGO figures.:-)
Robot letdown
A floor-washing robot sounds great, until you get one and realize how often you must empty and refill it. A window washing robot would pose the same issue, I am guessing. The gaming robots may be the easiest sell?
Not DARPA material
After seeing what DARPA robots do, it's hard to get too excited about these. But after all, it is the Consumer Electronics Show.
Tyche-o-graphical nonsense
"Real-time tracking of the human face recognition is possible, and if it fails to trace to find himself face moves."
Oh, the hilarity!
Oh, the hilarity!
My son would love the Rapiro
Rapiro looks like a good way to get kids programming and seeing the results of their work.
Re: Winbot FTW
Paro the baby seal looks like a warm and fuzzy robot companion. Let me see if I have $4,500 lying around.
Winbot FTW

It's generally easier to do it yourself than try to get a robot to take care of it. And that's like to be true for anything other than repetitive action in a controlled environment for decades to come.
