Robot could give you the finger

Posted on Oct 25, 07 08:59 PM PDT

While the Laws of Robotics were designed to preserve human life at all costs, that doesn't mean it can't give you the one finger salute whenever you mistreat it. Researchers at Japan’s National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) have successfully developed an autonomous humanoid robot which is capable of recognizing and using body language in order to get the message across. This would bode well as the robot tries to communicate with young children, the elderly as well as computer-illiterate. It is packed with technology that enables it to observe, recognize and remember human behavior, but chances are it is still a long time in coming before you can get something like the T-800's caliber in real life.
