  • Does anyone else think that the narrator sounds like a female Christopher Walken?

  • one minute they are askinf for directions, next minute they are your mechanjcal overlords

  • I would give it wrong directions. >:P

  • eobots don't need to interact with humans more naturally, their programmers need to be a little smarter in programming their shit. Hence this is why the Xbox360 fails and the PS3 Pwns.

  • "Help robots interact with humans more naturally". What the hell is natural about a robot?

  • its behavior? <.<

  • emergence?

  • thats so kool

  • I would have pointed it right to the scrapyard.

  • that womans voice... every time she ended a sentence she had this annoying finalizing type of tone that reminded me of a prissy teenager. "Oh my goodness, Ashely wood look so much better in blue obviousssllyyyy."

  • like, eww, Ashely's a skank

  • OMG, they've built a female robot! (A male robot wouldn't ask for directions...)

  • great point!!!!

  • thats cos males always know where they're going. its the females that always get lost. ;)

  • is it a.....pleasure model?

  • if you are out there and reading this message you are the resistance

  • Comment removed

    (A male robot wouldn't ask for directions)

    8-)

  • Haha, nice xD.

  • Thats Awesome :D

  • way to help out the robots

  • thats pretty cool.

  • Excuse me sir, could you tell me where the nearest nuclear power plant is? I need to do some "sight-seeing".

  • lol

  • NEAT... how much longer do I have to wait for my robot butler (damn Asimov)?

  • wow oO 5*

  • seria mas util si indicara las calles

  • ya es suficientemente bueno para hacer eso, te imaginas la programación que se debería hacer para eso??? pa que de las direcciones? las preuntas que la gente haría?? necesitaría GPS integrado, y la pantalla no se podría tocar, así que debería poder detectar todas las combinaciones de letras posiles y en todos los idiomas, sería un programa muy pesado y muy dificil de hacer, pero sí, tienes toda la razón sería mucho mejor....pero a ver, algun día

  • The robot must be a female robot, because a male robot wouldn't ask for directions according to all the professional comedians out there.

  • lol

  • Thats pretty cool

  • That is absolutely awesome.

  • Gah. I can't mute the narrator, because then I can't make sense of the video. But I can't watch it either, because hearing that voice makes me want to strangle her with the microphone cord.

    The video is unwatchable.

  • LOL agreed she is pretty annoying, but this is a cool video.

  • lol

  • What? I think she sounds SEXY!!! But then again I'm straight.

  • It's not that you're straight, it's that either your tastes are really nonstandard or you're pretty desperate after half a lifetime of rejection.

  • I guess I'm non-standard, she's exotic. Your reply is SO gay.....I think I'll listen to her 10 more times! Rejection? I wouldn't know.....so can you please tell me how it feels to be rejected?

  • Robot gives up after getting 300 "wrong" directions from teens thinking they're funny. Robot starts asking hot girls if it can come over "just to hang out" instead.

  • Once it figures out how to find its way around it goes up to people and says 'Come with me if you want to live'

  • lol 5 hrs!

  • Telemarketers, nature help organizations and now fckin robots bugging me in the street

  • #KZZZGK# Excuse.me.Sir.#KGKK# May.I.give.you.a.flyer.?. #BZZT# (hip hip hooray for on street telemarketingbots)

  • Really cool! :D

  • what does the robot do when someone lies and points in the wrong direction?

  • than it takes longer to get 2 its destination. it would eventually get there tho bc most ppl wouldnt lie.

  • It replies "DOES NOT COMPUTE!", starts smoking from it's brain, and goes on a killing spree.

  • Robot killg spree for the win!

  • That's amazing :o

  • OH FUCK!!!!! Robots are going to take over the world

  • Dont worry, they are going to ask before.

  • GASP! We're screwed!

  • Mhmm, to bad the Oktoberfest wasnt going on ^^

    Probably pretty interesting where drunk people send a robot

  • "I'm looking for a John Conner"

  • that was the t-1 as opposed to the t-1000. brace yourselves. judgment day nears.

  • haha, nice.

  • My cumbersome box-robot can find it's way faster.

    "Which way to the bottom of the grand canyon?"

  • hahaha no STD's for people who cant get girls ;)

  • nice !!

  • Really nice camera technology at 0:39

  • I saw someone do the same thing with a cardboard battery-powered robot a foot tall that had a flag on the top asking people to point it in the right direction to get to it's destination. It worked too.

  • wow...

  • that is really cool!

  • Very cool :)

  • Robot panhandlers are just around the corner. ;-)

  • Amazing! It's awesome seeing how far we've come, and how far we're going!

  • I think I'm going to study human-computer interaction.

  • haha, i live in munich but unfortunately he din't ask me

  • It would be awesome to see it roll up to a kid and shout "EXTERMINATE! EXTERMINATE!".

  • ROFLMAO. I think I'd have to look at it, look away. Then look back and burst out laughing. If it were to say... Bust out the cannons, then I'd be scared, lmao~!

  • Awesome, the future of robotic interaction amazes me.

  • cool, the robot should have asked "where is the nearest Mac Donalds" :D

  • wow lol

  • Great! Good use of technology!
