Asimo at CES Las Vegas Jan 2007

[HoshiSenshi]

alphonse...... are you a robot?

[Angie2343]

Awwww! He and Watson should SOOOOOO team up!

[geozaf]

Arnold Schwarzenegger should be the voice of Asimo!

[AsaraH18]

theres totally a body in there

[SquintsPBHS]

What they don't tell you is that this robot is actually operated by the disembodied soul of a 14-year-old boy.

[mayandang21]

amazing!! honda is so good at making vehicles, now they make this, japan is number 1

[Annasavi]

we seen Asimo live and hes so kewl and he can hold your hand and go 4 a walk wit u and do heaps of kewl stuff

[eclipsegsx268]

Wow walking down the stairs was very impressive. Not even ED209 can do that.

[Federicoxxx]

asi can fall.. of the stairs too!! is amazing!

[DaELFGokulio]

So...who skrewed up and brought their brother back as a rboto through alchemy?

Fess up!

[3EternalSnow3]

It is Alphonse! xD

[jjbb84]

Brother!?

[defragen1]

good job asimo outstanding asimo!! yay asimo !!! super asimo!!! go asimo!!!

this guy is giving me headache

[MewWinxKPandmore]

He sounds like Alphonse Elric!!! lol!

[tillo2008]

he still looks like an astronaut.

[goford90]

wow asimo can reply in a conversation!

[cyborgtroy]

TV Tropes was right! It's Alphonse Elric!

[Scentless]

I think he sounds more like one of the Astro Boys.

[RayeGunn]

hey, that's where I found this too! and yeah... it's true, it does sound like him, just needs that metallic echoey effect.

[MewWinxKPandmore]

Lol, just picture that robot (above) saying, "Brother" and we have match. lol

[PurpleGummyBear]

@cyborgtroy

BWAAHAHAHAHAHA

You made me spit my coke on to the screen! >__<

[Tranquilchan]

...Alphonse? Is.. is that you?

[RTaco]

Sounds like Aaron Dismuke.

[japaneselilly]

I can feel most cofidence on ASIMO as robot when walk, run, dance, kick, hold, climb up and down staires. On top of that, ASIMO has peacefully balance it self. I love it. Nobody in a white suite nor remote control operate,,, OK!!!!

[killthefakes666]

i thought it was awesome-o for the longest time

[lordoid]

???

[HondaRacingDevellopm]

LOL ! right, a "master piece"! good talk !

but he walk with a shit in his ass ! lol

[lordoid]

I think it wouldn't be better i they modeled it after your kind of walking...

[HondaRacingDevellopm]

Asimo is the most advanced robot !

The Honda Genius mirror .

But you, what is your problem with me ????

[lordoid]

Hey...i thought it sounded a little bit rough to say he "walks with a shit in his ass" and that your "good Talk" was ironic. Many people dont't appreciate the overall work and always complain about his walking. I think he walks cool. In a robot kind of way. My comment was a bit sarcastic but with a ;). I don't want to attack you personally allright?

[HondaRacingDevellopm]

Ok,

I was sarcastic also in my first comment.

I am the first to support Honda, but sometimes i like to laugh about Asimo !

The great and advanced Asimo, but very funny also .

[ReikaiDemon]

Is it just me, or does Asimo sound like Aaron Dismuke?

[RhythmRiff]

oooh break it down

[maria495]

skill

[pontolones]

good thing that time around on the stairs he didnt have a blue screen of death and fall over.

[olzzn]

human technology at it's best<3 beautiful

[OmarMafia66]

bad ass

[Cheezeheadraver]

what a masterpiece

[Scarr420]

Is it bad that this robot dances better then me?

[ChrisStohl]

Asimo sounds like Alphonse Elric from FMA.

[MizuShiori]

I thought it was just me.

[ShyGirl1994]

years 4rm now we'll look back at our stupid robots and laugh

[befrey]

i think you right xD some years ago they even couldn't walk on two legs on normal speed xD

[Blueoriontiger]

LOL! I think I remember those days...XD

[befrey]

5 cm steps :P

[LordOfDSmotPoking]

i want one

[Gizmomaster7]

I'm looking forward to seeing the final version in action.

[Enshin69]

That is because you are an idiot, now thats not difficult to compute.

[Snuilp]

I am becoming a robofobian! See all the other droids! How can you tell the difference? When are they gonna teach them to write comments?!? ;/

[Blueoriontiger]

Maybe all they do is plug a cord into the USB port and transmit their comment. Spam-bots can do it...why can't they? XD

[Snuilp]

I know of mailbots actually talking to eachother and people! Google for AI and search for 'creating a new form of life.' (Or something like that.)

It's name is Alan.

Be amazed..

[NitramNeslo]

he walks like he's just taken a dump in his shorts!

[Snuilp]

Well 2008? Don't let it hear it. ;P

[skunkinc]

why he gotta be white..huh??? why can't he/she be more of a natural skin color??? wait if they made him/her brown i would still be writing this comment complaining about "why he/she gotta be Brown"...wait why he or she gotta be ASIAN LOOKING huh Why?????

[banonan]

nope he's a reptilian none of the above bwahahahah...

[NitramNeslo]

yuo got a problem with white robots??? you robot racist!

[13WhiteFang37]

LOL..

[khlymore]

lmaooooooooo

[Tanzanymph]

If you have a problem with that keep your mouth shut, and sneak into Honda wearhouse to spray paint ASIMO into whatever color you want!

[ImC00LyourNOT]

i would fuckin shoot that thing

[emorykon]

oh yankee stfu shoot ur stupid cowboy dad

[meeps4tetris]

is it just me or does he seem to speak japaniese more fluently than english?

[forklift920]

I wouldn't know, I don't speak japanese.

[bulldragon1]

but he can,t dance like the one in the car advertisment

[bahrest]

killermachine

[beeGoaTee]

asimo is amazing, how amazing is the being being

[Valtiel06]

Ever wonder if there's a Japanese midget in there?

[Bdub132]

i dont think they should give robots to much intellegence cause if what movie makers thinks about robots actually happiens well we are all fucked

[jaseharris2112]

dont trust it! its a jap plot to kill us. If you look carefully he has a torpedo tube and i read his diary it says ' pearl harbour must finish job of ancestors"

[GundamGetterFan]

if you ask me Bender can kiss Asimo's shiny metal ass go Asimo

[elyurita]

think how useful this robot can be for the development of surgical robot arms and legs for the handycap...

[5elin]

good idea the army and police should use them 2

[boywithcamera7]

i totally agree. awesome idea! i wouldnt mind losing an arm to get a robotic one! XD

[vhiemon]

asimo cool robot! i hope you visit here in philippines!

[Roneage]

lets not criticize honda and there good work, think of how hard it would be to program something like that theres at LEAST 53 motors in that tiny robot that moves it along and the backpack thing on its back is the computer and i doubt they could be used for law enforcement or in the army coz asimo's battery can only last an hour and thats only while hes walking around! not running he wouldnt last that long in a war

[Natashathompson]

They make the demo bots small and give them childlike voices to make them appear non threatening. This is NOT a current example or state of the art at all. It is a declassified model or you would NOT be seeing it. Far larger weaponized versions will work as soldiers and COPS very soon.

[Natashathompson]

They are remotely controlled or lanned to a large central semi AI computer. Larger versions can generate their own power, are immensely strong, fast and heavily armed. When have they ever failed to use the latest technology to kill and control people? They will be everywhere NOT just "poor countries".

[MikeGarwood93]

soon theyll install mini bazooka's that'll shoot off of his hands, once he blows up the white house he'll be programmed to shout long live HIROHITO!! no jk japan rocks

[BlkMagik]

It's cool but I can't connect with it like I connect with Qrio. There's something about Qrio that makes it more appealing... probably those big eyes. Too bad Sony stopped producing them. Oh, and Qrio is a way better dancer than Asimo if you ask me.

[GlitchersByTheSecond]

WELL Qrio is very small so he and she can dance very well

[YOSHINAGAMIDORI]

asimo is the most advanced humanoid ever produced. it's not a day's work 2 produce such things.we can all sit here and comment on what's missing. but if you were involved in its production you'd see how difficult it is to make it perform even a single move

[BlkMagik]

I know it's not a days work to produce and engineer this robot. I am not knocking ASIMO; I know that it is a very advanced robot. All I said was that I can connect more with QRIO because of his baby-like features. And that still doesn't change the fact that QRIO dances better, lol.

[ImC00LyourNOT]

shutup bitch you arent the one that made that piece of shit anyways so stop bitching like you put some work into it

[BeeRad277]

Yep, they started this project in 86. Although their original robots weren't called Asimo.

[dpa11111]

Thanks!

[zume]

that doesnt impress me. the major stuff is precalculated. no way that heap of crap could climb my winding staircase. its circuts would overload just by the first step. i do however love the idea of advanced technology being put into robotics. i dont see asimo using all the resources he could, thats all. i mean asimo could look like a real child by now if honda wanted it to. it could move exactly like a human being if it used the VERY latest technology. cool vid tho.

[koolkat250]

y dont they just put a handrail on that and programm him to use i mean like every set of stairs has one u dumb asses a 12 year old outsmarted you all hahahahaha ok maybe a little dramatic

[oldschoolrap]

there going ot kill us!!!...LOL

[jay666999]

I think Japan is aiming for world domination by using robots. think bout it these are the robots we get shown wat bout the ones the are keeping top secret. or am i just paranoid. lol

[Myaucat]

I love Asimo!!

[Nick3889]

Asimo is AWSOME!!!!!

[Videosjardim]

Fabuloso esse robô!

Fabulous this robot!

[JadeDragon007]

WOULD OF BEEN BETTER IF ASIMO STARTED TO BREAK DANCE AND GIVES EVERYONE THE FINGER AND CURSE THEM OUT. I WOULD BUY ONE THAT CAN DO THAT :p

[gregtestagent]

I got no strings to hold me dow...arrgh! *stumbles down stairs*

[RJ956]

WOW it is awesome and hey you took a great video i guess you had a great angle all i can say is i want one

[fejaroorz]

But can it dance?

[Oakuka]

2:30 has your answer

[biggles122]

its cool

[WeirdMrBilly]

it's short

[LanceOK2]

Cool, my bikes a HONDA, well next stop Mars for Asimo. ;)

[switch5565]

with all these big electrical companies how come the best functioning robot built was built by a car company

[Becky15349]

I wonder what a robot like this is worth! Pretty cool...still kinda freaks me out a little though!!

[CrazyCardPlayer1000]

oi, when I grow up, I want one...to do the house work for me =]

lol anyways, thats amazing

[bussbass]

Wow, I want one.

[Miasmummy2497]

WHAT AN ERIE MOVEMENT

[sero3838]

en büyük baba asimo baba.

[justcaleb]

thanks for posting such a great video. That robot is amazing.  Good post!

[juljulkuk]

if asimo gets better human form it gonna go persocon

[WhiteHawkUK]

Interesting note - this model has individually articulated fingers (previous models used one motor for all four) and so it actually *could* wield a gun and kill all your enemies!

[ChesapeakeScience]

Great!

[panipani]

hehehe..i want one...the one that can kill all my enemies .lol

[halowars247]

whoa i cant wait till these things become self aware. then the fun really begins... hmmhmhhmwahah

[sazzmee]

Wow!!

[jaymoney2010]

this is just so cool and asimo do look like his pooping when he runs. lol

[paridoth]

wow thats incredible, i want one =)

[Aznishere]

Asimo runs as if he have to go poop

[NickGaming]

hahah

[bstime32]

I LOVE AWESOMEO
