Asimo is in town!
In the near future, maybe my Asimo at home can help me to update my blog or might be even running his own blog. Anyway…. I’ll do the blogging for now first :D
Asimo is in town today! In fact, he is here since yesterday! For those of you that don’t know what is Asimo, here’s some short details.
ASIMO (アシモ ashimo?) is a humanoid robot created by Honda Motor Company. Standing at 130 centimeters (4 feet 3 inches) and weighing 54 kilograms (119 pounds). The robot resembles a small astronaut wearing a backpack and can walk or run on two feet at speeds up to 6 km/h (4.3 mph).[1] ASIMO was created at Honda’s Research & Development Wako Fundamental Technical Research Center in Japan. It is the current model in a line of eleven that began in 1986 with E0.

Wahhh ..
Law 1: A robot may not harm a human being, or allow a human being to come to harm.
Law 2: A robot must obey instructions from a human, except where this would conflict with the first law.
Law 3: A robot must protect itself from harm, except where this would conflict with either of the first two laws.
