Amazing work. Hoping to see you in RoboCup.

[mcsdaver]

Looks very cool

Amazing work you have done.

[KitKarenza]

It walks like C3PO !

[Blooper1980]

KO... lol

[tonyhogard]

Is this thing Three Laws compliant?

[wlorenz65]

@tonyhogard Not yet. They are still trying to write Asimov's three laws in Java so that robots can understand them

[enlightening]

its' the first time I find a robot cute XD

[wlorenz65]

@enlightening No wonder because it's not a robot – it's a puppet disguising as a robot

[hipertoni]

Good work! This robot with ROBOTIS Dynamixel's actuators is something really new never seen before.

[hipertoni]

Good work! This robot with ROBOTIS Dynamixel's is something really new never seen before.

[Kofla2000]

this is not japanese we are safe for now!

[6tekila7]

It's too slow when it walk, but except that, it's awesome !

[ZentaOlbaid]

Wow! This is incredible amazing. I can't even imagine the complexity behind all the kinematics.

[nikkyred]

ehy that vid was taken in italy

[Huesusiro]

Thats the cutest robot I ever seen

[focosoft]

En el minuto 2:00 casi se me salen las lagrimas, muy real.

[BeautifulGirlByDana]

As long as you don,t sell it to the military industrial machine ,its cool

[tried12usernames]

things like these actually make me think that we're decades away from doing something interesting

[Nanaijo3]

Keep up the good work, Indria Flowers!

Ignore doomsayers, they watched too much movies without education.

[SiempreAprendiendo]

I have no words, magnifique, awesome! It's the most fluid humanoid I have ever seen

[DaFreak4ever]

However made this, thank you! He even moves more fluidly than C3PO! simply amazing.

[robertlam18]

This is brilliant. If only someone can post how to do this freely on the Internet then robotic can develop quicker

[crawn]

i want to see how he does on Robot Wars

[MichielKrol2000]

Well done! Nice job! I love the emotional part of taking his hand and it turns its head at 4:50

[illustriouschin]

@nonearthlychildren if you pay close attention you will see that, no, robotics and artificial intelligence have made very little real progress the last decade and unless someone thinks of something completely different, that is not going to change any time soon.

[illustriouschin]

1. Is there any real reason for having the feet completely loose like that?

2. Have servo technology progressed at all in the last 30 years or are those the same ones from my dad's RC planes? I mean there has got to be something better than making an entire robot out of 100% servos from the late 70's.

[omatu1]

it says: "I'll be back"

[jackfucker1]

@mne231 lol ..i bet

[debnadaviebna]

@nonearthlychildren What are you afraid of and what do you think will happenin the future? When all work is done by robots, all humans get everything for free.

[ThePandaMovement]

we're doomed.

[Nanaijo3]

@ThePandaMovement No we're not. Getting killed by a robot won't happen in your lifetime. However, if I understood this correctly, we have been doomed by dregs human conflicts. You know... those gang members in your street? Yeah, those guys.

[TheKrispykreme]

Awesomeness!
