R100 Personal Robot from NEC

R100 Personal Robot from NEC
The R100 Personal Robot is one of the quirkier looking robots from NEC that looks more like a de-feathered penguin and will easily pass as Frankenstein's offspring. As we were told not to judge a book by its cover, what does the R100 Personal Robot have in store for us? For starters, it comes with a couple of CCD cameras that is capable of recognizing faces, cheering the owner the moment he comes back from work, as well as help the R100 navigate without bumping into furniture and other obstacles which litter the floor. A trio of microphones enable it to catch your commands and match it with a 100 phrases in its database. The R100 is also capable of expressing itself through 300 phrases. It surfs the Net as well, delivering your e-mail on your behalf. ( Add a comment)
