Nothing impresses me more than to see the advances in robotics, especially the humanoid-kind. The lucky few who attended this year's CES got to see a glimpse of the future by seeing a running robot in action. This robot, called ASIMO for Advanced Step in Innovative Mobility, was designed by Honda. That's right, the same folks who make cars, trucks, and motorcycles for the masses have all along been working on a robotics project to develop a humanoid robot to eventually aid us in everyday tasks to saving lives. We aren't that far away from creating a robot much like the one in Bicentennial Man and it will be exciting to see what's next. Below is a video of ASIMO in action, check it out:
