Asimo: ‘I’ve fallen and I can’t get up!’

In this video, Asimo shows the danger that androids face when climbing stairs. Go to the :50 second mark to see the robot take a tumble. Ironically, Asimo falls just after explaining how the sensors in its feet allow it to maintain balance.

  1. I saw this and felt so bad…like a kid fell down some stairs or something. Oh well, if anyone(thing) can rebound from such a fall, I’m sure its ASIMO. ^_^

  2. Yeah, well. He has rebounded, seeing as how this video is over 3 years old.
