With the recent publication of the united states bear I had a trance like trip down memory lane nad remembered the other robots si used to spend hours doing researching on out of pure fanaticism with the subject of robotics it self. Mainly anime applied however.

Asimo - Created by the japanese Giant Honda. Asimo Made its debut in 2006. I remember it had a nasty fall but I still think the little fellow is remarkable to this day. His movements were the most fluid I ever saw in robitics. Just look at the little guy running

Here’s a video of Some random Japanese robots with a few situations to which they can actually be applied

This one had me for quite sometime. especially based on the fact that transformers is but 3 weeks away

This isn’t real but just something from a japanese movie called the returner that looks ooohh soooo bad ass. Thing is they shoulnd’t have used a boeing because.. well boeings do vertical take offs or hovers

One more thing to add a shuttle was launched recently was it not. Friday 8, 2007 I’m not mistaken. I wonder if this is the beginning of transformers… unfolding :p
