I Too Want A Robotic Friend

I guess I'm going to have to build one then.
Almir Heralic, from Chalmers University in Gothenburg in Sweden did just that.
This robot is awesome! It has many of the same joins as a human, can recognize faces, track movement...
Kind of makes me wish I was in a different field of study. I don't think I have the skill though.

WATCH!

Ohh, and it talks too...

Here's Almir's page at Chalmers.

I guess this really is old news, but I thought I'd share it with you anyway.
